Re: StarCluster base AMI converted to C5 instance type

Hi folks,

Unfortunately it seems that this will require a change in the code of
StarCluster to comply with the new C5 instances and its new devices.
If you take a look to clustersetup.py, you can notice that some job must be
done.

All best,

Sergio
