[IPython-dev] Problems with ipcluster and LSF protocol (v.0.13.2)

[Florian M. Wagner]

Dear IPython Users,

I am trying to start engines on a big cluster, which uses the Load 
Sharing Facility protocol. The engines seem to start correctly:

    *[wagnerfl at brutus1 ~]$ ipcluster start --profile=cluster
    --engines=LSF --n=4 --IPClusterApp.log_level=DEBUG*
    2013-07-30 11:55:31,893.893 [IPClusterStart] Using existing profile
    dir: u'/cluster/home02/erdw/wagnerfl/.ipython/profile_cluster'
    2013-07-30 11:55:31.914 [IPClusterStart] Starting ipcluster with
    [daemon=False]
    2013-07-30 11:55:31.915 [IPClusterStart] Creating pid file:
    /cluster/home02/erdw/wagnerfl/.ipython/profile_cluster/pid/ipcluster.pid
    2013-07-30 11:55:31.916 [IPClusterStart] Starting Controller with
    LocalControllerLauncher
    2013-07-30 11:55:32.915 [IPClusterStart] Starting 4 Engines with
    LSFJob array.
    2013-07-30 11:55:33.199 [IPClusterStart] Job submitted with job id:
    '27633338'
    2013-07-30 11:56:03.200 [IPClusterStart] Engines appear to have
    started successfully


However, I cannot access them from the Client.

    In [1]: from IPython.parallel import Client
    In [2]: c = Client(profile='cluster')
    In [3]: c.ids
    Out[3]: []

Could you give me a hint how to debug this, or is it not worth trying 
and should I better wait for 1.0?

Thanks a lot in advance
Florian
