Custom Agent Instance AMI in Sydney region

Question

I'm trying to set up Bamboo and want to have it run instances based in the AWS Sydney region (which is where our application environment is based).

I have a custom AMI prepared in Sydney, but when I try to add it via Bamboo instance configuration and error is returned saying that it cannot be found.

The Bamboo JIRA ticket BAM-9515 suggests that this should not be a problem.

Currently I am only able to run Bamboo OnDemand in US-East. Please help to shed some light on the issue.

Thanks,

Jonathan

Found that the region could be configured back in the Bamboo Elastic Configuration page. I thought this was already set to Sydney as that's what I selected during set up, but when I went back to this page I saw it to be set to US East.

A clearer or more detailed error message here would be appreciated, but otherwise it works as expected.
