cloud-awscli-reconcile-instances

Recovers from failed or missing cloud-init joinup

Designed to use an AWS CLI broker(s), this blueprint will call the AWS CLI describe-instances call in the aws-scan-instances task to collect information.

If unknown machines are found, they are added to Digital Rebar.

Operational Note: the range of AWS infrastructure that can be discovered is limited by the API key and region used when this is called. This will likely require multiple AWSCLI brokers to be created for full coverage.

Unlike Terraform drift detection, this process looks outside of know state for resources.
