Something seems wrong with the VPN we use to access/adminster the orka cluster.

I got in there today to begin work on adding support to the testing ephemeral images so that they have a mountable disk to store the ccache, and the VPN will only connect for about a minute before disconnecting.

I opened up a support request with MacStadium.

VPN Issue is solved.

Next up:

• configure the instances to leverage a permanent ccache
• create new images for macos that have the correct usable xcode version installed.
• enable instances with new ccache and ensure we have builds that build in a reasonable timeframe

This was discussed in the build WG meeting, and so that everybody is aware, this is top priority for ryan's available cycles from the build teams perspective (other than short term fires) as it is blocking a number of PR's and V8 upgrades in the Node.js project.

@mhdawson @mcollina I wanted to give you and update that in our triage meeting today we are targeting this work being complete by the end of the week.
