hey folks, what is a proven-practice to wait for userData script to complete. We currently the problem that pulumi shuts-down instances too early when replaced, because the userData script still runs. :disappointed:
My favorite way would be that I can have pulumi shut down the old instances and replace ips in lb only once the new userData is done

would it be an option to toss them in an ASG and set up a health check that isn't healthy until userdata runs?

Not really, since we have the same issue with multiple cloud providers :open_mouth:

Just a quick heads-up for everyone having the same issue (waiting for cloud-init)

Use the new remote commands (<https://www.pulumi.com/blog/executing-remote-commands/>)
```cloud-init status --wait```

Big thank you to all at Pulumi, for having remote commands :heart:
