wait_for_create_complete timeout too low

[faangbait]

The wait_for_create_complete boolean has a (non-configurable) timeout of 20 minutes.

We've found that it often takes 40+ minutes to create a ROSA cluster.

Recommend either making this timeout configurable or setting the default to 60m.

We're bumping against the exact same issue that the creation goes into timeout as the cluster creation is taking longer than the default configured timeout.

Is there any news/info if RedHat is willing to have a look into the timeout/making it configurable for the module?

Same issue here. RedHat, please have a look at this. 20-25 minutes is too low. If you are not willing to allow us to configure it then please increase it to at least 1 hour at a minimum.

Is workaround for this at the moment?

Okay I think after failed creation of this cluster this resource is tainted so I need untaint it

Yeah, they've fixed it in the rhcs provider as of version 1.6.7+.
See https://github.com/terraform-redhat/terraform-provider-rhcs/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#167-5-dec-2024

knobs for per case customization will be available in 1.6.9+ as well
