Public bug reported: While attempting nova volume-attach on current devstack deployment I'm getting intermittent failures during the attach operation: http://paste.openstack.org/show/641383/
Each time I've encountered this I've been able to simply rerun the command and it completes succesfully. To reproduce: Deploy devstack with cinder multi-attach patches (https://review.openstack.org/#/c/531569/) Create a multiattach volume-type: cinder type-create multiattach cinder type-key multiattach set multiattach='<is> True' Create two instances: nova boot --image <image-id> --flavor 1 i-1 nova boot --image <image-id> --flavor 1 i-2 Create a multiattach volume (cinder create --volume-type multiattach --name vol-1 1) Attach the volume to each instance: nova volume-attach <i-1> <vol-1>) nova volume-attach <i-2> <vol-1>) Sometimes this works, sometimes it doesn't. It appears that the frequency of this failing is proportional to the length of time the Nova service has been up and running on the system but that might be nonsense. I've yet to encounter a case where running the second attach command again did not succeed. ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
