Some commands are run in parallel against multiple nodes; this sometimes makes debugging simple issues quite complex (especially for non python folks).

It would be great to have a validate command that spots the most common configuration mistakes:

. broken piramiko (eg. missing python dev libs) . user needs to be in the sudoers group (with no pass prompt) . missing lzop . misconfigured S3 bucket / invalid keys
