Hey all,

I spent far longer than was reasonable working out why OIL were unable to deploy workloads with juju 2.0.2 from the proposed stream.

https://bugs.launchpad.net/juju/+bug/1642609

The repro of the bug involved bootstrapping a xenial controller creating several new models and deploying bundles into the models. The Xenial machines would provision and trusty machines fail.

The cause of the problem is actually by design, although I would argue still insane and needs fixing. The agent-stream (proposed) is a model-config option that is not propagated to new models. So for new models the default stream is "released". The xenial agent is cached in the controller, so new models can provision xenial machines from the cached agent. When trying to provision a trusty machine the new model looks in it's agent-stream, released, which does not have 2.0.2 tools and thusly fails.

There are three current workarounds:

* If we promote 2.0.2 from proposed to released this specific problem goes away...

* After adding a new model you can set the agent-stream in the model-config

* Bootstrapping with "--model-default agent-stream=proposed" allegedly does propagate config options to new models

I am strongly of the opinion that at the very least a newly created model should be capable of deploying workloads, which means that at least a subset of model-config options should be propagated by default to new models. This means at least, agent-stream, agent-metadata-url, proxy settings etc.

All the best,

Michael Foord
