weird nova attach of a volume

 

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

ok so I have a volume that Im trying to attach to an instance from
within horizon.  It always fails with the message of could not attach volume.

I try it via a nova CLI version and get messages about /dev/vdb is already in
use. I had tried to attach it to /dev/vdb.
I move up to vdc and same issue. I go up to vdd and all is well.
however it actually shows up in the instance as /dev/vdb.

so a) why is it thinking something is already using the devices when
they really arent in use.

b) related but not part of this problem: why is it ignoring the device
I give it to mount to and just pick then next available vd device?

thanks
