Description
I've been using Apache Whirr(0.8.0) to create Hadoop+HBase clusters on EC2 using the CDH ami (and default AMI), turns out that Whirr is not using my whirr.location-id parameter. I specifically pass it as an argument --location-id=us-west-2 when I create the cluster and I also added it to the whirr recipe as whirr.location-id=us-west-2 but when I fire up the clusters they always get created in the us-east-1 region. My guess is that the Whirr recipe for CDH (and default) is overriding the region and I wonder if there is any way to disable this or force an specific EC2 region?
