Oh I understand now. I definitely misread your post. Ok then what is the difference between whirr.cluster-user and whirr.login-user?
Do I need to create ssh key for the cluster user as well? Should I run the command as the cluster user or the command user? Can the login-user and cluster-user be the same? Thanks!
