Paul Bakker commented on ACE-208:
---------------------------------
To use an existing key pair you need to install the private key on the ACE
machine and specify the path to this file in the node launcher configuration. I
also upgraded the SSH library to jclouds-sshj because this is recommended.
> Amazon node launcher should be able to use an existing key pair

> Now a new key pair is always created for new nodes. This is not always
> convenient because you need to first save the key pair to ssh to the new
> machine. Most of the time you already have a key pair for a group of nodes,
> this should be usable from the node launcher.
> I patched this by adding a "keypair" configuration option. If this new
> configuration option is omitted the behavior remains the same. If you specify
> a value, the value is the name of the key pair.
