This approach continues to be sane with MAAS and Juju (although I know that the Hadoop charm at least does not support additional block devices - but that should be fairly easy to implement). > * If you have multiple ethernet interfaces is there a preferred > configuration for that?

I don't think there is pre-canned way to doing bonded interfaces with Juju and MAAS; however it is possible to adapt charms to setup bonding as services are deployed.
