Hi Jesse,

Sorry for the delay in responding but glad you figured out to use
all-Ubuntu AMIs for both HVM and non-HVM nodes. With that said keep in
mind that only HVM nodes are on the high speed network IIRC which means
all traffic between master and nodes (e.g. NFS) will be suboptimal
compared to the performance of an all HVM cluster.
