Hi Sergio,

Spot instances are not recoverable. I would suggest using the load balancing tool to attempt adding new spot instances to replace lost ones. Your processes will need to be fault tolerant (checkpoints, restarts, etc.) to make use of the replaced instances.

Hi guys,
Is there any feature in StarCluster that allows a spot instance´s cluster to recover from a terminate process due price bidded?
