Hi, Ronivon Costa

If you use kvm(libvirt), you can logon the compute node.
use "virsh list --all" list all your no-running vm. For example, there is
an instance name "instance-00000001", you cannot reboot using nova command
because it attached block disk. You need do:
1. virsh undefine instance-0000001
2. goto the instances dir(default
/var/lib/nova/instances/instance-00000001), run "virsh define libvirt.xml"
3. then "virsh start instance-00000001", it can be started now/
4. then you should update information about "instances" and "volumes" table
in nova db. I think you already done it.
5. then you can "reboot" use nova-client or in dashboard.
6. then attach volume to the instance in nova-client or dashboard

I hope it can help you.
