[StarCluster] How to stop the nodes but leave the master running?

[Robert Yu]

Hi,
Thanks, but that's not what I had in mind.  I do not want to *terminate*
the idle nodes.  I want to "stop" them, which is like putting them to
sleep.  Waking them up again ("start -x") is faster than creating new
instances.
Thanks,
Robert
