[Bug 1660102] [NEW] Instance fails to boot with message "Starting Up..."

 

Public bug reported:

Environment:
Using RDO Newton on AWS node running CentOS 7.3.1611 (Core) via packstack. Storage reports as iscsi. Downloaded the software and ran yum update today. I have attached a file, within the compressed tar file,  with rpm output of package versions. I'm using the default networking which I believe is neutron with OVS and openVSwitch.

Problem:
Using the BUI, nova or openstack commands the instance becomes active but never boots. The console only reports "Starting up ..." I cannot seem to find other errors or obvious output. Some times it seems there is no volume attached, others that there is. But the error - failure to boot is the same.

One of the three ways this bug happens, output attached in a file:
root#  nova --debug boot \
      --flavor smallfry \
      --image cirros  \
      --security-group web-ssh \
      --key-name finance-key \
      --nic net-id=46d5f53c-9d05-4cfb-b229-56d4d2ea9bd5 \
      try25

I've tried this on a couple of different instances over the last couple
weeks with the same issue. The very same system and install produced
working instances in Liberty.

Also in the tar file is output of sosreport for cinder and nova as well
as software information and --debug output.
