If any of my statements below are incorrect or misleading, I am sure the
Scalr team will jump in:) So please do wait a day or so before deciding
on any route you may take.

Ok, I see, that's a shame, I did think the 'import non Scalr server'
option would be more accommodating, and it's also a shame there is no
Scalr provided Tomcat-app role (when I think there used to be?).
At present (for this particular project, or even for Tomcat in
general) it's looking like AWS Elastic Beanstalk is a better and
easier option, unless I went down the chef route, which I don't really
want to at this stage.
Many thanks for the advice, it's very much appreciated.
Best regards
Richard.

Hi Richard
Starting from scratch and creating a new role is not recommended
by the
Scalr team (this was the answer when i wanted to do the same a
year ago,
dont know if it has changed, if you search this forum you may find
the
old answer!)
Also the scalrizr script depends in an app role on the fact that
Apache
is running (not sure if its just port 80 or apache) .. I had a
need for
a JBoss role and I simply installed JBoss also in the standard App
role. On that instance i have opened only the JBoss port and
apache in
that sense is hidden but Scalr is happy. The disadvantage is that if
Apache is running but JBoss crashes, scalrizr does not recognize it.
This is managed separately by detecting it and using the Scalr API to
terminate the instance so a new one will replace it.
In a nutshell, not straight forward but doable with a few tweaks.
