Upcoming change in 1.24: tags in EC2

[Andrew Wilkins]

Hi all,

Just a small announcement, in case anyone cares. In the EC2 provider, from
1.24, we will start tagging instances and volumes with their Juju-internal
names and the Juju environment UUID. Instances, for example, will have a
name of "machine-0", "machine-1", etc., corresponding to the ID in "juju
status". There is not currently an upgrade step to tag existing resources,
so only newly created resources will be tagged.

The environment UUID can be used to identify all instances and volumes that
are part of an environment. This could be used to for billing purposes; to
charge the infrastructure costs for a Juju environment to a particular
user/organisation.

We will be looking at doing the same for OpenStack for 1.24 also.

Cheers,
Andrew
