Hi David,<br>
Has anyone in the Swift group run Swift on Amazon? Perhaps there are<br>
already some pre-configured images Iman can use, that already has the<br>
environment (Linux, Java, Swift, PBS/Condor, GridFTP, NFS/PVFS, etc)<br>
setup and ready to use. If there are such images, please point Iman in<br>
the right direction. If not, perhaps after Iman finishes his<br>
configuration, we can reference his images for others to use on Amazon.<br>

You should be able to follow the "bag of workstations" configuration example once you have started your EC2 instance. That may help to simplify things for you a bit. Please let me know if you have any questions or issues with this.<br>
