[Bug 1583504] [NEW] The instances which didn't be evacuated will be destroyed when the nova-compute service is restarted.

 

Public bug reported:

Description
===========
Normally, if you finished evacuating instance, nova-compute will destroy the existed instances whose state are "done" or "accept" in the migration table from the fault host after the nova-compute service is restarted. However, if the nova-scheduler failed to schedule the hosts, e.g. no valid host, nova-scheduler won't update the migration state of the instance to "failed", so that the nova-compute will destroy this instance after restarting by mistake.

Steps to reproduce
==================
1. Create some instances in the the specific host.
2. Make this host to fault state.
3. Disable nova-compute service in other hosts, aim to mock that nova-scheduler fail to schedule.
4. Recover the fault host and restart nova-compute.
5. Check all instances are still existed in the kvm.

Expected result
===============
All instances should be still existed in the kvm.

Actual result
=============
All instances are destroyed by nova-compute unfortunately.
