Ah.  I feared this.

To make a very long story short, some of our applications / deploy scripts
have hard coded IP addresses that they expect.  This is done because our
legacy bare-metal infrastructure does not have functioning DNS during
certain parts of our deployment.  Machines that come immediately after
these early stages look for a host at a specific IP.  Once the 0th and 1st
stage infrastructure has been set up, DNS and
auto-discovery/auto-configuration starts to work.


Basically, there is one role in my farm that has a single instance (min/max
set to 1, manual scaling).  This instance lives in a specific subnet within
a VPC.  Instances that are launched after it will attempt to use *this*
instance for NAT/Bootstrapping/Etc.  They do this w/o the use of DNS (hard
coded IP).  The ability to set the IP manually for this specific instance
is desired.


Thanks.
