Hi Cong, thank you for confirming the fix in your case.
I'm going to go ahead and close this bug as Invalid for nova since it's
not a nova issue, but a ceph configuration issue. If there are any
changes or fixes needed in deployment tools to do the ceph
configuration, please add those projects to this bug.

Title:
VM fails to boot after evacuation when it uses ceph disk
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
Invalid
Bug description:
Description
===========
If we use Ceph RBD as storage backend and Ceph Disks (image) have
exclusive-lock feature, when a compute node goes down, the evacuation process
works fine and nova detects the VM has a disk on a shared storage, so it
rebuild the VM on another node. But after the evacuation, although nova marks
the instance as active, the instance fails to boot and encounter a kernel panic
caused by inability of the kernel to write on disk.
It is possible to disable exclusive-lock feature on Ceph and the
evacuation process works fine, but it needed to be enabled in some
use-cases.
Also there is a workaround for this problem, we were able to evacuate
an instance successfully by removing the lock of the disk to the old
instance using rbd command line, but I think it should be done in the
code of rbd driver in Nova and Cinder.
The problem seams to be with the exclusive-lock feature. when a disk
has exclusive-lock enabled, as soon as a client (the VM) connects and
writes on disk, Ceph locks the disk for the client (lock-on-write)
(also if we enable lock-on-read in Ceph conf, it would lock the disk
on the first read). In the evacuation process, since there is no
defined process to remove the exclusive-lock from the old VM, when the
new VM tries to write on the disk, it fails to write since it can't
get the lock.
I found similar problem reported for kubernetes when a node goes down and the
system tries to attach its volume to new Pod.

There, some people proposed before bringing up the new instance, first
blacklist the old instance, then unlock the disk and lock it for the new one.
Steps to reproduce
==================
* Create an instance (with ceph storage backend) and wait for boot
* Poweroff the Host of the instance
* Evacuate the instance
* Check the Console in the dashboard
Expected result
===============
The instance should boot without any problem.
Actual result
=============
The instance encounter kernel panic and fails to boot.
Environment
===========
1. Openstack Queens, Nova 17.0.2
2. hypervisor: Libvirt (v4.0.0) + KVM
2. Storage: 12.2.4
