stack create failed with AlarmActions in AWS::CloudWatch::Alarm

[hanwei]

My problem is similar as https://bugs.launchpad.net/heat/+bug/1380168.But that bug is solved in my environment.

Here is the relevant resource snippet of mine:

    "Instance_Alarm": {
      "Type": "AWS::CloudWatch::Alarm",
      "Properties": {
         "AlarmDescription": "Restart the specific instance",
         "MetricName": "Heartbeat",
         "Namespace": "system/linux",
         "Statistic": "SampleCount",
         "Period": "300",
         "EvaluationPeriods": "1",
         "Threshold": "1",
         "ComparisonOperator": "LessThanThreshold",
         "AlarmActions": [ { "Ref": "Instance_RestartPolicy" } ]
       }
    }

 the resources of "Instance_RestartPolicy" is CREATE_COMPLETE. while I remove the "AlarmActions","Instance_Alarm" is OK. I got the message in my heat engine log:

Did you have a try with "AlarmActions": [ "Instance_RestartPolicy" ], or "AlarmActions": "Instance_RestartPolicy"

Looks like I have same problem. Does anybody have any advices?

[[e-mail] (gagarinq9)]

According to http://docs.openstack.org/developer/heat/mitaka/template_guide/unsupported.html OS::Heat::HARestarter is DEPRECATED, but enabled and officially not supported, posible previous releases of Heat has working variant of OS::Heat::HARestarter resource.
