Allow non-on-demand/permanent workers on master cloud #474

Closed XaverStiensmeier closed 3 months ago

We removed those for on-demand scheduling. However, for some use cases it is necessary to have instances permanently running.

This cannot be implemented in the same way for foreign clouds as it has been implemented on the master cloud, because while it is best to setup master and worker on the same cloud at the same time via a single ansible call, this is not feasible for foreign workers. Their vpngtw isn't set up at that point.

Therefore, if we want to allow for permanent workers remotely, we need to start the playbook an additional time for the remote workers after running the playbook on the master and vpngtws. Adding this second playbook run will be delayed for now and will be part of a new issue.
