To be clear, the redeploy seems to have solved the problem that was often causing us to be unable to connect to the seed. The extra debugging made possible by https://review.openstack.org/#/c/149819/ also turned up at least one other issue that was causing failures creating the tar file. Prior to https://review.openstack.org/#/c/149819/ we couldn't distinguish between "couldn't read source files", "couldn't contact seed", "couldn't write tar file onto local machine" and possibly other errors.
