The creation a stack is usually a time costly process, considering that there are cases where software packages need to be installed and configured.
There are also cases where a stack consists of more than one VM instance and the dependency between instances. The instances may have to be created one by one. Are Heat people considering adding some progress updates during the deployment? For example, a simple log that can be printed by heatclient telling the user what progress has been made: Refreshing known resources types Receiving template <...> Validating template <...> Creating resource my_lb [AWS::EC2:LoadBalancer] Creating resource lb_instance1 [AWS::EC2::Instance] Creating resource latency_watcher [AWS::CloudWatch::Alarm] .... ... This would be useful for users to 'debug' their templates, especially when the template syntax is okay but its activities are not the intended one. Do we have to rely on heat-cfn-api to get these notifications?
