Title:
nova should allow evacuate for an instance in the Error state
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Fix Released
Status in nova package in Ubuntu:
New
Status in nova source package in Trusty:
In Progress
Bug description:
[Impact]
* Instances in error state cannot be evacuated.
[Test Case]
* nova evacuate <error_state_instance> <another_compute_host>
* nova refuses to evacuate the instance because of its state
[Regression Potential]
* None
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).
