Hi Greg,
This sounds like the availability zone issue. I am assuming you are
restarting the same cluster (i.e., using the same name) and the instance
that gets created may be created in a zone different from the one that the
volume from the previous instantiation of the cluster was in.
biocloudcentral does not know which zone your cluster was created in
previously so it cannot request an instance in that zone. Obviously, this
is a limitation of service and, thus far, we are mostly recommending it be
used to start a cluster only the very first time. After the cluster
creation, we recommend using the AWS console (which is easier to get going
now because all the security group/key pair issues have been resolved).

The underlying reason for not having this functionality built into
biocloudcentral is because we did not want to keep user information in a
database over time because it is somewhat sensitive data...
