Details

When used without an argument, the command shows the current controller and its active model.

When a single argument without a colon is provided juju first looks for a controller by that name and switches to it, and if it’s not found it tries to switch to a model within current controller.

Colon allows to disambiguate model over controller:

  • mycontroller: switches to default model in mycontroller,

  • :mymodel switches to mymodel in current controller

  • mycontroller:mymodel switches to mymodel on mycontroller.

The special arguments - (hyphen) instead of a model or a controller allows to return to previous model or controller. It can be used as main argument or as flag argument.

The juju models command can be used to determine the active model (of any controller). An asterisk denotes it.
