Dear list,

i have some problems using the snow package to create a SOCK cluster. The errors just occour irregularly but it seems to me that they occour when I try to create more than one cluster on the same machine via different R instances started via submitting LSF jobs to a cluster. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this or where to start digging for solutions?

The error messages are:

library(snow)
cl <- makeCluster(8, type = "SOCK")


Error in socketConnection(port = port, server = TRUE, blocking = TRUE,  :
  cannot open the connection
Calls: run.call ... makeCluster -> makeSOCKcluster -> newSOCKnode -> socketConnection
In addition: Warning message:
In socketConnection(port = port, server = TRUE, blocking = TRUE,  :
  port 10187 cannot be opened


R version 2.15.1 (2012-06-22)
Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit)
