This is what I did but it looks like there is a better way to run
kolla-ansible on a specific role/service.

I have added  nova_instance_datadir_volume; /mnt  in global.yml and
run following command

$ kolla-ansible -i all-in-one deploy

Above command took 20 minute to finish because it went through each
role. but i think i am missing something in documentation to run the
above task in a limited way to just push out to a specific
container/role or service. In my case it's nova_compute.  kolla looks
good but the documentation isn't great, especially related maintenance
and daily operations.
