You're going to need a more complete command line than "openstack
overcloud deploy --templates". For instance, if you are using VMs for
your overcloud nodes, you will need to include "--libvirt-type qemu".
There are probably a couple of other parameters that you will need.

You can watch the deployment using this command, which will show you
the progress:

watch "heat resource-list -n 5 | grep -v COMPLETE"

You can also explore which resources have failed:

heat resource-list [-n 5]| grep FAILED

And then look more closely at the failed resources:

heat resource-show overcloud <resource>

There are some more complete troubleshooting instructions here:
