--------------------------------------

             Summary: Existing `userMetadata` cannot be used with WinRM 
deployments
                 Key: BROOKLYN-439
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-439
             Project: Brooklyn
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.11.0
            Reporter: Mike Zaccardo
            Priority: Minor


When deploying a WinRM-based blueprint, the `userMetadata` of the deployment 
location's configuration must be empty. See: 
http://docs.cloudsoft.io/blueprints/base-blueprints/winrm/index.html#user-metadata-service-requirement

This prevents the user from deploying with any other potentially useful 
`userMetadata` values, like their email or a "keep" tag. It will also cause the 
WinRM deployment to fail if the user does not realize that s/he has existing 
`userMetadata` in place, and there is no relevant error message to make this 
clear.

Ideally the existing `userMetadata` could be merged with the necessary WinRM 
script so the user does not have to abandon their desired `userMetadata`.

The relevant code is here:
