[Bug 1250680] Re: vmware: Rebooting a powered off instance puts instance in error state

 

This is not a valid use case.
https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/e9627002bd3df5c24fac5f0302ab683b31b4ddd6/nova/compute/api.py#L1955

Makes the action of rebooting a VM that is powered off an illegal
action.

** Description changed:

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Launch an instance
  2. Shutdown instance
  3. Reboot instance
  
  Traceback: http://paste.openstack.org/show/52226/
+ 
+ Change in compute API here:
+   https://github.com/openstack/nova/blob/e9627002bd3df5c24fac5f0302ab683b31b4ddd6/nova/compute/api.py#L1955
+ 
+ makes the action of rebooting an instance that is shutdown an invalid
+ action. So this whole bug isn't something that can be "fixed" at the
+ driver level.
