[openstack-dev] [nova] evacuating boot-from-volume instances with local storage is broken?

Hi,

I'm interested in running "nova evacuate" on an instance that has local 
storage but was booted from a cinder volume.  OpenStack allows 
live-migration of this sort of instance, so I'm assuming that we would 
want to allow evacuation as well...

I'm getting ready to test it, but I see that there was a nova bug opened 
against this case back in March 
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/1299368).  It's been confirmed but 
hasn't even had an importance assigned yet.

It seems a bit unfortunate that this bug would go six months with no 
attention at all...

Chris
