[PDC-DISCOVERY] Could not rebuild with a clean machine

[carolyncole]

Expected behavior

When I ran the playbook on a newly created machine it errored on common : common | Add apt HTTPS capabilities.

I had to ssh onto the machine and run sudo apt-get update --fix-missing on the system

Actual behavior

Error messages

Steps to replicate

Rebuild the machine utilizing the tower rebuild template.
Apply the pulsys keys in tower
Run the playbook

Impact of this bug

I ran the command suggested by hand

Acceptance criteria:

• Run the ansible tower playbook to create a clean VM on pdc-discovery-staging2. (note this should be on the public network so change the drop down)
• Run the ansible tower pulsys playbook on pdc-discovery-staging2.princeton.edu
• Run the pdc-discovery playbook on your local machine
• It should error with the above issue
• Run the fix-apt
• Rerun the pdc-discovery playbook and make sure it finishes
