[Openstack] How to start/stop/restart services in devstack

Thanks for your comments. I don't have any users, images, etc. to
worry about, I didn't go that fat to create users and images.

I re-run stack.sh and horizon and keystone were running; I  lunched an
instance then tried to access
http://myServer/nova/access_and_security/ but machine crashed and I
have to reboot it!

I think stack.sh should be divided into two scripts one to install
devstack and another to start/stop/restart services.

Thanks

Joe
