commit f5c9ebd56075f8eb04f9f0e683f85bacdcd68c38 Author: melanie witt <[email protected]> Date: Wed May 18 00:09:18 2016 +0000 Fall back to flat config drive if not found in rbd Commit adecf780d3ed4315e4ce305cb1821d493650494b added support for storing config drives in rbd. Existing instances however still have config drives in the instance directory. If an existing instance is stopped, an attempt to start it again fails because the guest config is generated assuming a config drive location in rbd. This adds a fall back to the instance directory in the case of config drive and rbd if the image is not found in rbd.

Our environment has "force_config_drive = True". In Icehouse, Juno, and Kilo, this uses an ISO 9660 image created in /var/lib/nova/instances/$UUID/disk.config However, in Liberty, if using CEPH RBD for ephemeral, there is a switch to putting this in rbe like this: rbd:instances/${UUID}_disk.config While this works GREAT for new VMs, it is problematic with existing VMs as not all transition states were considered. In particular, if you do a nova stop $UUID followed by a nova start $UUID you will find your instance still in the stopped state. There is something in the start code that ASSUMES that the new rbd format will be in place (but it doesn't actually create it.) There is a work around if you find instances in that state, simply cold migrate them with nova migrate $UUID which redoes the config.drive plumbing and creates the rbd:instances/${UUID}_disk.config Our permanent work around has been to prepopulate the rbd via a script though getting this bug fixed would be much better. Liberty is a stable release and this is a loss of service type of bug so should get fixed. Not clear if this is also an issue (likely so) in Mitaka/Newton as we haven't got an environment yet to test it, but presumably with long running VMs from early config drive, it would also exist in Mitaka.
