Bug Description

The issue was found in the customer's lab.

Some of chef-clients cannot be finished automatically so that the progress was stuck. I guess in the installation, the auto-run chef-client demon was stopped for some reason.

Here is the potential issues:
1. It is not good that the progress was stuck for hours, we should set a timer to detect the running status of chef-clients.
2. The cron job of chef-client should be run every 30 mins, however the run.sh didn't work properly.

BTW, which recipe got stuck? It would be nice to include the context, e.g, target system, and flavor in the UI wizard step. Chef-client log would also help.

As for run.sh and cron for chef-client, will let Xiaodong look into the details.

I cannot found which recipe was stuck, it may happened when the server was rebooted, anyway, I don't know how to reproduce the issue.

sometimes, it is not necessarily stuck. It is just the chef-client log
wan't synced back by rsyslog.
