Is it possible to deploy a charm to Juju bootstrap node (to a container) ?
I have not been able to add machine on which Juju controller resides, and see it in the list of available machines that can be targeted for charm deployment.
Tried, for example, with:

juju add-machine --constraints tags=juju

Error:

Machine State DNS Inst id Series AZ Message
0 pending pending xenial failed to start machine 0 (failed to acquire node: No available machine matches constraints: [('zone', ['default']), ('agent_name', ['594543d5-4690-4f80-822a-60ea0446016a']), ('tags', ['juju'])] (resolved to "tags=juju zone=default")), retrying in 10s (5 more attempts)

The machine was successfully bootstrapped via (tag _is there)

 juju bootstrap --constraints tags=juju mymaas maas-controller --
 config=config.yaml

The juju controller node is actually in a different model. You can see it as long as you have the right permissions by doing:

dpb@helo:~$ juju models
Controller: localhost-localhost

Model Cloud/Region Status Machines Access Last connection
controller* localhost/localhost available 1 admin just now
default localhost/localhost available 0 admin 2018-02-26

Then, use juju switch MODEL_NAME to switch between them. You have to be in the controller model to modify what used to be referred to as the bootstrap node (now called controller).
