Device_path = None seemed to have no effect but the exception.LocalStorageNotSpecified(flavor=flavor_id) was raised (/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/trove/instance/models.py). The same effect was with value False. The only way I could proceed was to explicitly replace ephemeral_support to False in the code (models.py. line 630->):

I guess that the reason is that the instance does not send the instance id in the heartbeat message (Instance ID is None in the log trace below). What is the way that guest-agent could learn the instance uuid of its own? Should it be injected to the instance somehow?

Yeah - just tried this out myself with similar results. Looks like 
things are setup to require cinder support.

Now with regard to the ModelNotFoundError: InstanceServiceStatus you are 
seeing - this is probably because the file injection of /etc/guest_info 
is failing. This is vital as typical contents of this file are:

[DEFAULT]
guest_id=ddd97300-5976-4c41-89b8-1d886cc4b531in
datastore_manager=mysql
tenant_id=a9d3f1c6c7984856985b99a8185ece12

i.e in particular the guest uuid.

I struggled with making sure that this file was injected successfully, 
and it seems that requiring a config drive in Nova is essential - e.g:

$ sudo vi /etc/nova/nova-compute.conf
[DEFAULT]
compute_driver = libvirt.LibvirtDriver
force_config_drive = always

Also you need to check that the guest init for guestagent looks at this 
file e.g:
(guest) $ cat /etc/init/trove-guestagent.conf
description "Trove Guest Agent"
author "Thomas Goirand <zigo at debian.org>"

start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [!2345]

respawn

exec start-stop-daemon --start --chuid trove:trove \
             --chdir /var/lib/trove --name trove-guestagent \
             --exec /usr/bin/trove-guestagent -- 
--config-file=/etc/guest_info 
--config-file=/etc/trove/trove-guestagent.conf --log-dir=/var/log/trove 
--logfile=guestagent.log


Best wishes

Mark
