  The _create_domain() method has the following line:

  err = _LE('Error defining a domain with XML: %s') % xml

  which fails with the UnicodeDecodeError because the xml object has
  utf-8 encoding.  The fix is to wrap the xml object in
  oslo.utils.encodeutils.safe_decode for the error message.

  I'm seeing the issue on Kilo, but it is also likely an issue on Juno
  as well.
