[Curtis Hovey-Canonical]

juju-core 1.17.7

A new development release of Juju, juju-core 1.17.7, is now available.


Getting Juju

juju-core 1.17.7 is available for trusty and backported to earlier
series in the following PPA:
    https://launchpad.net/~juju/+archive/devel

Upgrading from stable releases to development releases is not
supported. You can upgrade test environments to development releases
to test new features and fixes, but it is not advised to upgrade
production environments to 1.17.7.

If you are using a development release of juju-core, and find you need
to go back to a stable release, you can find it in the juju stable PPA:
    https://launchpad.net/~juju/+archive/stable

If you have multiple sources of juju-core, you can select the version
you want using apt:
    sudo apt-get install juju-core=1.16.6*

Juju retry-provisioning

You can use the retry-provisioning command in cases where deploying
services, adding units, or adding machines fails. The command allows you
to specify machines which should be retried to resolve errors reported
in status.

For example, after you deployed 100 units and machines, status reports
that machines 3, 27 and 57 could not be provisioned because of a rate
limit exceeded error. You can ask juju to retry:

    juju retry-provisioning 3 27 5


Juju unset-env

The unset-env command allows you to reset one or more the environment
configuration attributes to its default value in a running Juju
instance.  Attributes without defaults are removed, and attempting to
remove a required attribute with no default will result in an error.
Multiple attributes may be removed at once; keys are space-separated.


Finally

We encourage everyone to subscribe the mailing list at
