Hi Prashant,

when the service starts, it checks if it has already registered in the
database, if not, it will update the db to create an item for itself. you
can see from the nova/service.py

149     def start(self):
150         verstr = version.version_string_with_package()
151         LOG.audit(_('Starting %(topic)s node (version %(version)s)'),
152                   {'topic': self.topic, 'version': verstr})
153         self.basic_config_check()
154         self.manager.init_host()
155         self.model_disconnected = False
156         ctxt = context.get_admin_context()
157         try:
158             self.service_ref =
self.conductor_api.service_get_by_args(ctxt,
159                     self.host, self.binary)
160             self.service_id = self.service_ref['id']
161         except exception.NotFound:
162             self.service_ref = self._create_service_ref(ctxt)

I think you need to add this logic to your fake nova-compute service.
