The documentation is wrong about ELB_LIST

[techgnosis]

You don't need to edit ELB_LIST anymore. There is a method in common_functions.sh that populates it for you.

Thanks, you saved me a lot of time by posting this - AWS should probably update the docs

Correct me if I'm wrong... but we still need to manually call this from somewhere, right?

You need to call the register/deregister scripts but you don't need to set
ELB_LIST before you do it

To clarify:

• You do not need to set ELB_LIST at all if your instances are a part of an Auto Scaling Group.
• You do need to set ELB_LIST if your instances are registered with load balancer(s) manually.
• The get_elb_list function in common_functions.sh will populate ELB_LIST for you. However, there are currently issues (see my PR Fix get_elb_list function when looking up from ELB #41 for a fix).
• I've submitted a PR automatically set ELB_LIST if not provided #40 to use get_elb_list to automatically populate ELB_LIST for you as long as you set ELB_LIST to all.
