The cluster update timed out
This could be an issue related to cfn-hup not running. If the cfn-hup demon is terminated by an external cause,
it's not restarted automatically. If cfn-hup isn't running, during a cluster update, the CloudFormation stack starts the update process
as expected, but the update procedure isn't activated on the head node and the stack deployment eventually times out. For more information, see
Troubleshooting a cluster update timeout when cfn-hup isn't
running to troubleshoot and recover
from the issue.
