Hi Anthony,

Thank you for your help.

I tried as you suggested.  Now, the VM does boot, but unfortunately there 
is no network access (I cannot ping the associated floating IP).  
Furthermore, I am unable to view the console through horizon. 

Do you have any other ideas? That is interesting that the master doesn't 
have the issue.  Just to verify, are you running this all on one node? 

Thanks,
Geoffrey
