Public bug reported: We currently allow reboot/rebuild/rescue for an instance in the Error state if the instance has successfully booted at least once.
We should allow "evacuate" as well, since it is essentially a "rebuild" on a different compute node. This would be useful in a number of cases, in particular if an initial evacuation attempt fails (putting the instance into the Error state). ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
