Checking the Progress of Event Mesh Updates
The process of creating, updating, or deleting an event mesh can take up to five minutes. The time varies based on various factors (e.g., size of the event mesh, the cloud providers and regions of your event broker service, network connectivity speeds, etc.). When you choose to create, update, or delete an event mesh, you get a notification on indicating that the operation has started. To check on the progress of the operation, you can navigate to the event mesh and see its status on the tile for the event mesh. You may need to refresh the view or discover the event mesh if you've just created it. For more information, see Discovering New Event Meshes and Refreshing the View for an Event Mesh.
For example, if you started creating an event mesh, you can select Mesh Manager 
from the navigation bar in the PubSub+ Cloud Console and on the Mesh Manager: Event Meshes page, you can see the creation progress of the event mesh as shown
