SYNOPSIS

12       run-instances options]

DESCRIPTION

16       This  program  is a wrapper script for euca-run-instances(1) that takes
17       one additional option, -l|--launchpad-id.
18
19       With this option, a user can specify a comma-separated list of  Launch‐
20       pad.net usernames.
21
22       Once  the  instance is booted, the cloud-init boot script will retrieve
23       the public ssh keys of the specified  users  from  Launchpad.net  using
24       ssh-import-lp-id(1).
25
26       All  other  options  besides  -l|--launchpad-id are simply passed on to
27       euca-run-instances(1).
