Getting idle spot instances #25

Open rajeshbk042 opened 8 years ago

rajeshbk042 commented 8 years ago

Can you please give me the step to get idle spot instances?

So, that I can assign another job into it without creating new spot instance. If we get this worked, we can use this one spot instance for other jobs until it terminate.

Any idea is more appreciable ...

Hi there,

Instances are not shut down after they complete the work. So as long as you give them the work e.g. brenda-work -T frame-template -s 1 -e 312 push they will continue to look for queue and work on it. You can start instance without any brenda-work and then add the work to the queue later on.

Hope this helps

Hi,

First I thank for your information. Here, I want to list out all idle spot instances(those are active status) and assign a new task(another rendering farm) into it without creating new one.

Thanks & Regards, Rajesh
