Waiting for the agent on VM - failure clarification


William C Penrod
 

I'm using the bosh v2 create-env command to deploy a bosh instance out. The deploy was
failing and it took me a bit to discover that the problem was not that the agent on
the new vm was failing, but that the bosh cli could not communicate from the host
I was running it on to the previous or new vm. Would it make sense to have more detail
on the 'waiting for agent' task output?
