[openstack-operators] RBD problems after data center power outage

I assumed the header was missing because of this message:

> error reading header from  
> c2b54eac-179b-4907-9d61-8e075edc21cf_disk.config: No such file or  
> directory

If you can stat the header file can you share the output of

rados -p vms listomapvals rbd_header.<BLOCK_PREFIX>

Are there rbd_data objects left in the pool from that config drive?

rados -p images ls | grep <BLOCK_PREFIX>
rbd_object_map.1cbc666b8b4567
rbd_data.1cbc666b8b4567.0000000000000000
rbd_header.1cbc666b8b4567

If yes, maybe there's a way to set things back together, which I  
haven't done yet. Are all affected VMs referring to a config drive and  
is it always the config drive object that's missing?
