Hi George, I don't really understand the relationship between _base and the
b17bfae2-27b4-49a4-9d1b-bd739b400347 (instance directory, where the disks
are), this is what _base contains

root at cebolla:/var/lib/nova/instances# ll _base/
total 2424832
drwxr-xr-x  2 nova         nova       3896 may 27 15:23 ./
drwxr-xr-x 28 nova         nova       3896 may 27 14:36 ../
-rw-r--r--  1 nova         kvm  2147483648 may 27 15:52
1cfaaa19259a9538efb89dd674645af7ad334322
-rw-r--r--  1 nova         nova 8589934592 nov 18  2013 swap
-rw-r--r--  1 libvirt-qemu kvm   536870912 nov 15  2013 swap_512
root at cebolla:/var/lib/nova/instances#

And I've checked glance DB and the 39baad54-6ce1-4f42-b431-1bac4fd6df28
register is indeed marked as deleted and the file is gone:

root at acelga:/var/lib/glance# ls images
37a88684-f1d8-472a-8681-65eb047c2100  c94ee2f6-fae5-451c-9633-18c33ec512de
 d21dd4db-389c-4f4c-a749-91acc1262652
root at acelga:/var/lib/glance#

Is there any healthy way to start the instances without this lost image? Do
I really need the image to start the instances?

Thanks
