I need to create a 300 nodes cluster.

1. if there a way to query AWS in advance to see if they have the 300 EC2
availables? I dont want to find out after 299 nodes that they out of that
EC2 type. I am not sure if StarCluster already check for that.

2. Would it be better to create the cluster with less nodes and then add
them 20 at a time?

Thanks in advance
Ramon
