Open Stack

Hey dude :)
Remember my doc.
In fact the main issue is not about the database state... it's about the ISCSI session that is lost after the node reboots.
Check out my drp script. It does handle that for you : 
https://github.com/Razique/BashStuff/blob/master/SYSTEMS/OpenStack/SCR_5006_V00_NUAC-OPENSTACK-DRP-OpenStack.sh

There are much more better way, but that script saved me several times. the part you are looking for is here : 

			use nova;
			update volumes set mountpoint=NULL;
			update volumes set status="available" where status <> "error_deleting";
			update volumes set attach_status="detached";
			update volumes set instance_id=0;	


The other way around would be to cron a script that saves the iscsi sessions, and after a reboot, and BEFORE the openstack services start, recreate the sessions.
I'll try that and see if it's working on a long-term basis.
