Public bug reported:

In Liberty, when a transient error happens (such as lost connection to
the database) while the compute is performing a delete of an instance,
that instance is stuck in DELETING state, and cannot be deleted anymore.
This persists until restarting of the compute service fixes this, as
during initialization all deletes are retried, and the delete finishes.

It would be better if the service restart wasn't required.
