Loadbalancing error against ubuntu QIIME AMI

From: james pettengill <no email>
Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2013 08:14:12 -0400

We are trying to run the loadbalancing when launching a cluster of QIIME
AMI's (a software for analysis of next-gen sequencing data) and are running
into some errors.

The loadbalancing works well when running the StarCluster AMI but we have
not been able to get QIIME (easily) installed on that AMI.

Below is the error. Any info would be great.

Thanks.

The cluster is now ready to use. To login to the master node
as root, run:

    $ starcluster sshmaster STAR-ELASTIC

If you're having issues with the cluster you can reboot the
instances and completely reconfigure the cluster from
scratch using:

    $ starcluster restart STAR-ELASTIC

When you're finished using the cluster and wish to terminate
it and stop paying for service:

    $ starcluster terminate STAR-ELASTIC

Alternatively, if the cluster uses EBS instances, you can
use the 'stop' command to shutdown all nodes and put them
into a 'stopped' state preserving the EBS volumes backing
the nodes:

    $ starcluster stop STAR-ELASTIC

WARNING: Any data stored in ephemeral storage (usually /mnt)
will be lost!

You can activate a 'stopped' cluster by passing the -x
option to the 'start' command:

    $ starcluster start -x STAR-ELASTIC

This will start all 'stopped' nodes and reconfigure the
cluster.
