​OpenStack Operations Guide talks about some of the potential data
inconsistency errors in openstack databases.

"... an instance was terminated, but the status was not updated in the
database" [1]

"Sometimes an instance is terminated but the floating IP was not correctly
de-associated from that instance. Because the database is in an
inconsistent state, the usual tools to dissaociate the IP no longer work.
To fix this, you must manually update the database." [2]

I'm wondering whether manually inspecting the database is the only way to
identify such data inconsistency errors. If so, I think it could be a
tedious process since we have a large number of tables in each openstack
component database and may not clearly know which ones should be queried to
detect the potential inconsistencies.
