Hi, you can find the "rescue" function in Nova.
-------------
Here're simple steps:

1. Add a "rescue_image_id=$(imageId you want to choose)" in nova.conf
firstly. If not given, the origin image will be used.
2. Secondly, waiting for your VM turn to "ACTIVE" after you execute "nova
rescue $vmid" command.
3. Access to your VM via VNC and fix it.
4. Execute "nova unrescue $vmid" back to normal.

Please see there for details: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/RescueMode

Thanks~
