[Openstack] Devstack -Ocata - Failed to launch instance on Host

Things you could check:

- on the compute node, nova compute log (DevStack names it n-cpu), are there messages indicating that the node can't contact the placement service.

- if so, find out why. 
The error message might contain clues. Likely causes are misconfiguration in nova.conf, some networking misconfiguration, firewall etc. Ultimately, the root of the problem is in local.conf, I would guess.

- if it can contact the placement service, something is wrong at a different level. Again, I would hope that the compute log contains useful information.

After running discover host command also not able to populate the compute node data into Resource_providers table.

The cell mapping table ahs cello and Null not cell0, post updating cell1 also -nothing resolved.


su -s /bin/sh -c "nova-manage cell_v2 discover_hosts --verbose" nova nova-manage cell_v2 discover_hosts

There is a section on multinode setup in the devstack repo, doc/source/guides/multinode-lab.rst, that I think covers the issue you're seeing.  Assuming your compute node shows up in  'nova service-list' output, you need to run ./tools/discover_hosts.sh to have a cell mapping added for the node.
