Open Stack

Hi,

We have an Openstack installation based on Kilo *(with KVM compute)*. One
of the users tried to resize his instance. The operation failed midway
because of an Auth exception from Neutron probably during a port binding
update. The instance was actually tried to be rescheduled to a new Host
(say B) from parent host (say A).

We see that nova updates the host name proactively to 'B' without a
confirmation that the operation succeeded. And since Neutron did not finish
the port update, the port is seen to be still bound to Host A. After some
code walkthrough/readings, we were able to bring the instance back online
by playing around with /var/lib/instances/<instance-id>_resize folder on
host A, and then using the virsh utility.

How can I update the OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR:host, OS-EXT-SRV-ATTR:hypervisor_
hostname, *OS-EXT-STS:power_state *attributes for the instances, so that I
can manage the instance again via horizon/cli? Currently the API calls are
directed to host B, because of the DB update.

Is it feasible to update at all? or I am too greedy here.


Thanks,
Sudhakar.
