Sure enough - that’s what it was - turns out things were not consistent and there was an egregrious typo leaving the ’s’ off of scheduler in nova.conf. I would have hoped that some config sanity check would have caught this at startup, is there any such command one can use to verify nova.config? 

If not - perhaps a programmatic way to do so might be useful.
