Well I just tested this....

Tried to create a snapshot of the heat stack overcloud (from a new clean state).
The snapshot is stuck IN PROGRESS (for over an hour). I cannot remove it.
Perhaps this is not such a good/reliable method.
I will revert to my CloneZilla bare metal imaging to restore back.

Any other suggestions as to how to cope with a stack update failure without deleting and recreating the stack?

Thanks

Charles

Hi,

TripleO stable Mitaka

I am testing expanding my stack by adding more compute nodes. The first update failed, leaving the overcloud stack in a failed state. Is it best practice to create a snapshot of the overcloud heat template before updating the stack?
You could then roll back and try the update again.

heat stack-snapshot overcloud
heat stack-restore [snapshot-id]

Regards

Charles
