Public bug reported: During the VM building state, the nova API allows for interface attach and detach. It generally does not succeed because the VM may not be created yet on the hypervisor (ex. the image may be transferring if using local disks and glance). Then the VM is brought up as defined by the original spawn request. However, the attach_interface request reported as successful and the VM is reported as having the interface (even though it does not).
Recommend that this operation be blocked unless the VM is in a specific state where it is allowed to run. ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
