Public bug reported: Attempt to boot a server with a block device mapping that includes a boot volume created from an image, plus an existing data volume. If the boot-volume creation fails, the data volume is left in state "in-use", attached to the server which is now in "error" state". The user can't detach the volume because of the server's error state. They can delete the server, which then leaves the volume apparently attached to a server that no longer exists. The only way out of this is to ask an administrator to reset the state of the data volume (this option is not available to regular users by default policy).
The easiest way to reproduce this is to attempt to create the boot volume from qcow2 image where the volume size is less than the image (virtual) size. ~$ cinder list +--------------------------------------+-----------+------+------+-------------+----------+-------------+ | ID | Status | Name | Size | Volume Type | Bootable | Attached to | +--------------------------------------+-----------+------+------+-------------+----------+-------------+ | 2e733722-8b19-4bff-bd8d-bb770554582a | available | data | 1 | -
