Description David Hill 2016-12-12 16:51:06 UTC

Description of problem:
Once in a while, overcloud deployment fails because nova-compute doesn't start successfully on the computes.  This is problematic because if we kill the restart, it fails the deployment and there're no ways of getting this back to a deploying state.,

Comment 2 David Hill 2016-12-16 20:07:28 UTC

This is a normal behavior. Until all controllers are up/running, the nova-compute deployment on the computes might be stuck in a starting state until rabbitmq/nova-conductor is connected.
