If anyone, like me, has been frustrated when debugging bootstrap failures and having the bootstrap machine torn down immediately on failure, a quick and relatively easy workaround for that is to "kill -STOP" the juju bootstrap process while it's doing the ssh commands.
You'll continue to see the ssh commands execute, but the parent process will stop when they finish, allowing you time to ssh into the bootstrap machine and inspect it. kill -CONT to allow the process to complete its cleanup. -- Juju-dev mailing list Juju-dev@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/juju-dev
