Description of problem:

If I try to detect the undercloud from a new deployment, and the undercloud director's httpd service is down for some reason, then I get the error message:

"Error: The Undercloud is not accessible. Please check that the address specified is your Undercloud's provisioning interface, you have logged in and run fusor-undercloud-installer on the Undercloud, and that it can be reached by your RHCI server."

This error message is given *after* the fusor server has *successfully* ssh'ed to the undercloud, but it then fails to connect to port 80 on the undercloud. This error message should specify that connectivity to httpd is the problem.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

QCI-1.1-RHEL-7-20160428.t.0

How reproducible:

100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.) Stop httpd service on undercloud.
2.) Verify ssh connectivity from fusor to undercloud.
3.) See unhelpful error message when trying to detect undercloud from new deployment.

Actual results:

Error message suggests steps that have all been done.

Expected results:

Error message specifies that SSH was successful, but pinging TCP port 80 failed.
