It all depends on how you have setup your cloud. Most/many OpenStack clouds DO NOT inject into the instance and the password feature is null and void.
Look at: enable_instance_password = *True* (BoolOpt) Enables returning of the instance password by the relevant server API calls such as create, rebuild or rescue, If the hypervisor does not support password injection then the password returned will not be correct http://docs.openstack.org/liberty/config-reference/content/list-of-compute-config-options.html (or whatever version of the docs that related to your cloud particulars.)
