** Description changed: [Impact] - * Instances in error state cannot be evacuated. + * Instances in error state cannot be evacuated. [Test Case] - * nova evacuate <error_state_instance> <another_compute_host> - * nova refuses to evacuate the instance because of its state + * nova evacuate <error_state_instance> <another_compute_host> + * nova refuses to evacuate the instance because of its state [Regression Potential] - * None - + * None + * Passed tempest smoke tests locally. We currently allow reboot/rebuild/rescue for an instance in the Error state if the instance has successfully booted at least once. We should allow "evacuate" as well, since it is essentially a "rebuild" on a different compute node. This would be useful in a number of cases, in particular if an initial evacuation attempt fails (putting the instance into the Error state).
