Hello Hideyasu, thanks for trying out TripleO!

The usual cause of a failure at this point is failing SSH from seed VM
to host.

Commands to debug:

## show the list of events and the specific resource that failed.
heat event-list undercloud

## show the error message that caused the failure
heat event-show undercloud resource_name event_id

Now, most likely, you have an error on the creation of the "notcompute"
resource. If so, you will have a server in ERROR state here:

## list my servers
nova list

If so, try

# Show details about the server
nova show server_id

This may or may not be helpful, as many problems boil down to "I couldn't
find a host to deploy to".

You can look on the seed VM for clues in
/var/log/upstart/nova-compute.log.

It takes 60 seconds to see the registered baremetal nodes in the nova
scheduler, so just deleting the stack and trying again can work. This is
likely since you are running a nested VM, so timeouts are common because
everything takes a _lot_ longer on nested vms. I highly recommend getting
real hardware to use if you can.

## delete stack
heat stack-delete undercloud

I hope all of this helps.
