<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Sorry it took me a while to get to
this. I haven't run ELB on the master node per say but I have
made one of my master nodes also act as my StarCluster controller
so in theory if I called the "starcluster loadbalance" command it
would work from that master node (who is also acting as the
StarCluster controller). Below are directions for making a Master
node into your StarCluster controller -- my guess is if you do
that then you can also call ELB on that master node. <br>
<br>
Directions:<br>
1) Take an AMI of the environment (let's call it AMI XYZ) you
would like to use as the master node WITH StarCluster loaded in
this environment (OR use a public AMI's that already has
StarCluster loaded on it). **Be certain to configure the
StarCluster config file in this AMI with the correct amazon
account information and the create the keypairs you will need for
StarCluster.<br>
2) Launch an EC2 using AMI XYZ and use this EC2 to create a single
StarCluster Master Node using the SAME AMI (AMI XYZ).<br>
3) Attach an elastic IP to this Master Node and use it to login to
this Master Node. Once you are logged in call the "starcluster
listclusters" command -- you should see the Master Node you just
created.<br>
4) Terminate the first EC2 you created to launch this Master Node
ONLY IF you were able to successfully call "starcluster
listclusters" and other commands from your Master Node. If not,
then something went wrong and you can use the first EC2 to
terminate the master node you created.<br>
<br>
Note there are better and perhaps more secure ways to set things
up than use an elastic IP on your master node in the VPC -- but
this is the easiest way to explain the process. If calling
"starcluster listclusters" on your master node doesn't work --
make sure you config is identical (in AWS account information and
keypairs) to the one that you used on the EC2 that launched the
master node. <br>
<br>
Good Luck!<br>

<div>Hi Richard,<br>
I think Jennifer Staab (on this mailing list) might have tried
to run ELB from the master. In theory, there is no reason not
to, but feel free to give it a shot and if there's something
easy that can be tweaked, I can give it a try. You would have
to install starcluster and copy all config and keys to the
master or to some persistent storage.<br>

Best,<br>
