I am running VPC with a Private Subnet Only and connecting my local 
machine via openvpn.
I usually just create the vpc cluster via boto and destroy afterwords.

I was looking into whirr as i need to run some mahout/hadoop jobs and it 
seams ideal for the job.

Thanks for mentioning BYON : amazing...
I guess i will use boto to create a node-bson.yaml and i am good to go.

Adding support for jclouds runNodesInGroupwould be a nice feature...

Many Thanks,

Jay

Short answer: No

Long answer: It's not really that difficult to make things work. Jclouds
can already start a virtual machine in a subnet. In the meantime I think
you can use the BYON provider (bring your own nodes) as an workaround.

How is your VPC network configured?
