Open Stack

Hi,

I've fixed the issue.

First, I would like to thank to all Ceph developers for making it bulletproof.

The root cause was "force_config_drive"[1] option of Nova that I had enabled few weeks ago. When you enable this option, Nova creates a new disk with the same name ending with ".config". The reason why I had enabled this option is, I am facing dhcp related issues sometimes.

Temporary disabling this option fixed the issue.

Regards
