We could provide a new config option to specify the correct URL to pass to -T With either of the mechanical changes in how juju creates the template, this last statement feels like the right one (to me). Maas is the only provider right now that supports LXCs as full-first class citizens, it already downloads and maintains multiple images, and according to Andres it also exports simple streams data. Should be a simple matter to add another image to this mix?

Juju + MAAS + Image Downloads
Hi juju folks -- I'm using MAAS + Juju to do some testing behind a firewall with LXCs. I want to accelerate the download of the large images that I am downloading from cloud-images.ubuntu.com. I see that MAAS has cloud images. Ideally, I'd like to instruct Juju to download them from there: https://bugs.launchpad.net/juju-core/+bug/1357045 But I'm not sure that is possible. So, I'll leave it to someone else to pick up that bug if they think it's worthwhile. I then tried to setup squid and proxy them transparently and found that the image-metadata-url that I give juju is only for the .json files that are referenced. The images are still downloaded via https from cloud-images.ubuntu.com. I'm not even sure if this is a bug. I mean, I understand why you want https, but if I want to mirror it, it's a new level of commitment to make it https only especially in a private environment. Is the only option for me to mirror cloud-images and set up an https endpoint (or a transparent https m-i-t-m proxy) in order to avoid downloading these large images over and over? -- David Britton davidpbrit...@gmail.com -- Juju mailing list Juju@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/juju
