Hi all,

We have a openstack-ansible setup and have ceph installed for the 
backend. However whenever we try and launch a new instance it fails to 
launch and we get the following error:

It moans about the rbd python libraries not being found, however all of 
the rbd libraries appear to be installed fine via apt. ( We are running 
Ubuntu)

Compute host packages:

dpkg -l | grep ceph
ii  ceph-common 10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        
common utilities to mount and interact with a ceph storage cluster
ii  libcephfs1 10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        Ceph 
distributed file system client library
ii  python-ceph 10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        
Meta-package for python libraries for the Ceph libraries
ii  python-cephfs 10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        
Python libraries for the Ceph libcephfs library

  dpkg -l | grep rbd
ii  librbd1 10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        RADOS 
block device client library
ii  python-rbd 10.2.3-1trusty                        amd64        Python 
libraries for the Ceph librbd library

Has anyone come across this before? Ceph is working fine for Glance, it 
just seems to be with the nova compute hosts.

Many thanks,
