[StarCluster] Spot cluster - head node as spot instance

[Ed Morris]

Hi.

Does anyone know if it is possible to specify the head node as a spot
instance when creating a spot cluster, as well as the compute nodes?

In the manual, it states that the head node is specified as an on-demand
instance for cluster stability, however, the way we use it, this is not
required and we'd like to access the greater cost savings by having the
entire cluster as spot instances.

Cheers.

Ed.
