Re: t1.micro cluster problem

Hi Didi,

You set a spot price of 3 cents, which seems really low to me. Because the
price was so low, the micro nodes probably never completely started up
while your starcluster command was running, and therefore the master's
/etc/hosts was never updated the those nodes. I'd try a larger spot price.

Good luck!
