Title:
  quotas restrict launch but no instances running

Status in OpenStack Compute (Nova):
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Running Folsom 2012.2.3 Multi-host mode.
  The quotas are set equal to one tiny host and a couple Gb for one volume. We have a very high user base for the amount of hardware we have.

  User's launch through the dashboard only.

  This quota works for a few launches/terminations of a vm, then I start to get the error:
  Error: Quota exceeded for cores,instances,ram: Requested 1, but already used 1 of 1 cores (HTTP 413) (Request-ID: req-32e06807-7fba-4e2f-8536-4f68f1483176)

  I did test at the cli for debug sake and I get the same error.

  [root@host2 ~]# nova boot --flavor 1 --image 9e74dc60-879d-4b4c-be45-7d721e63a821 test
  ERROR: Quota exceeded for cores,instances,ram: Requested 1, but already used 1 of 1 cores (HTTP 413) (Request-ID: req-a90b1d98-ed16-4bb8-9244-5525c4ee7b65)

  At the point I get this error there are no resources used in this
  project, quota summary on the overview page is empty

  I resolved this one time by cleaning out the reservations and
  quota_usage tables in the db manually. Then it happened again.
