ConfigSet not implemented

[Pierre Freund]

Heat seems to fail if "config" configset is not present.

[root@teststack log]# cat cfn-init.log
ERROR [2013-01-19 04:19:09,944] Error processing metadata
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/aws/bin/cfn-init", line 70, in <module>
    metadata.cfn_init()
  File "/opt/aws/bin/cfn_helper.py", line 969, in cfn_init
    self._process_config()
  File "/opt/aws/bin/cfn_helper.py", line 949, in _process_config
    self._config = self._metadata["config"]
KeyError: 'config'

I think "config" has been set by default because configsets are not implemented. We should be able to have different Configset for differents install types :

"Metadata" : {
"AWS::CloudFormation::Init" : {
"configSets" : {
            "fullinstall" : [ "DatabaseServer", "WebServer" ],
            "lightinstall" : [ "WebServer" ],
},

[...]

"UserData" : { "Fn::Base64" : { "Fn::Join" : ["", [
cfn-init --configset fullinstall

ConfigSet should be implemented

A simple template from aws with configset : https://s3.amazonaws.com/cloudformation-templates-us-east-1/Redmine_Single_Instance.template

A template has been written for heat and proposed as a change : https://review.openstack.org/20079

Here is the aws docs for it:
