Bug Description

When cluster creation fails while provisioning infrastructure, the error is rather unhelpful:

Heat stack failed with status CREATE_FAILED

There are many reasons why Heat can't create a stack, but Shara doesn't provide any clues. To find out more, the user needs to dig through the heat logs to find the cause of the failure.

Report stack_status_reason on heat failure

    When stack create fails, report the status reason, instead
    of just the status. This gives the user useful information about
    the cause of the failure (out of floating IPs, etc.) instead of
    just "CREATE_FAILED".
