Hi,

I'm trying to deploy a VM using two physical networks. manually create a VM to use these physical networks works fine.

neutron net-create --provider:physical_network ANetwork --provider:network_type vlan a_net
neutron net-create --provider:physical_network BNetwork --provider:network_type vlan b_net
neutron port-create a_net --binding:vnic-type direct
neutron port-create b_net --binding:vnic-type direct
nova boot --flavor m1.medium --image test.img --nic port-id=a_net_port_id --nic port-id=b_net_port_id my_vm

Then I turn to use heat to do the same, but my template is rejected and an ERROR popped like below:

ERROR: Template not in valid format: Error parsing template: while scanning for the next token found character that cannot start any token in "<unicode string>", line 15, column 1

My template is like this:

heat_template_version: 2013-05-23

description: >
  HOT template to create a simple setup 

parameters:
  image:
    type: string
    description: Name of image to use

resources:
  a_net:
    type: OS::Neutron::ProviderNet
    properties:
      physical_network: ANetwork
  b_net:
    type: OS::Neutron::ProviderNet
    properties:
      physical_network: BNetwork
  ..........................

According to openstack document, OS::Neutron::ProviderNet has only one "required" property, and it is "physical_network". why my heat installation doesn't like this property? did I missed anything in the template?

The heat version in my openstack environment is 0.4.0

stack@vRanGEP11:~/heat$ heat --version
0.4.0
