At the cinder mid-cycle it was decided that the best way to fix volumes stuck in 'attaching' or 'detaching' was NOT to fix the broken reset-state command. The doc string and help message for reset-state have been modified to warn the user that the tool only affects Cinder DB and can cause

I’m just not sure that you can evacuate with the c-vol service for those volume down. Not without the un-safe HA active-active hacks. In our public cloud, if the c-vol service for a backend/volumes is down, we get woken up in the middle of the night and stay at it until we get c-vol back up.

Could the work for the tooz variant be leveraged to add a truly distributed solution (with the proper tooz distributed backend)? IF so, then +1 to this idea. Cinder will be implementing a version of tooz based distribute locks, so having it in Olso someday is a goal I'd think.
