[Openstack] Nova volume service and the nova client command

I've configured the nova_volume service using the the Ubuntu 12.04LTS packages, and am able to create/delete volumes using the euca2ools package.  However, dashboard is not able to retrieve volume info or perform volume operations with the nova client.  If I issue the 'nova volume-list' command, I receive a 400 error response.  For example

root at essex1:/etc/nova# nova --debug volume-list
connect: (essex1, 5000)

Node essex1 is the cloud controller.  essex4 is the volume controller.  To verify the connection failure, if I try to telnet to port 8776 I also get a connect refused.  My nova-volume endpoint is specified in keystone as 'http://essex4:8776/v1/$(tenant_id)s'. With the above connection failure, nothing is written to the nova-volume.log (which makes sense if the server isn't listening to port 8776). Obviously, none of the other nova volume commands work.

Anything obvious that I'm missing?  Thanks in advance

Regards,
Ross
