Open Stack

I've set up a new Folsom instance on an Ubuntu 12.10 system.  Trying to 
launch a new instance booting from a volume snapshot, which failed with 
the below stacktrace saying that nova-volumes cannot be found.  This 
suggests to me that nova is using nova-volumes instead of cinder, even 
though I've set up cinder with a LVM volume group named cinder-volumes:

# nova.con
volume_api_class=nova.volume.cinder.API
osapi_volume_listen_port=5900
# MAKE SURE NO ENTRY FOR osapi_volume anywhere in nova.conf!!!
# Leaving out enabled_apis altogether is NOT sufficient, as it defaults
# to include osapi_volume
enabled_apis=ec2,osapi_compute,metadata


# cinder.conf
volume_name_template = volume-%s
volume_group = cinder-volumes



Is this a known issue?  I've since set 'volume_group = cinder-volumes' 
but I'm guessing this shouldn't be necessary?
