[Bug 1316556] [NEW] vmware: boot from image (create volume) is failing

 

Public bug reported:

Nova fails to boot an instance from the image using create volume.

Run time environment details:
  cinder is configured with VMDK driver
  nova is configured with Vmware Vc driver

While nova is trying to provision a instance by creating the volume from
the given VMDK image by creating a volume and booting from it, it failed
to create the instance, though volume is created properly after given
amount of time. This failure is occurring especially when the volume
creation is taking more than 180 seconds.

Exception thrown by nova compute is: Volume f36bf0ce-ef0d-4200-b15b-
cf2de3689bbb did not finish being created even after we waited 221
seconds or 180 attempts.
