  I have set the memcached_servers flag in nova.conf:

  memcached_servers=192.168.220.41:11211,192.168.220.42:11211,192.168.220.43:11211

  I receive the same error even when I front-end the memcached servers
  using a load-balancer vitual IP:

  memcached_servers=192.168.220.40:11211

  I have yet to test, but I recall seeing a similar problem in Folsom
  with consoleauth/manager.py
