[Bug 1721179] [NEW] A cell cannot be deleted once a host is added to the cell

 

Public bug reported:

Description
===========

In cell v2 environment, once a host is added to a cell,
the cell cannot be deleted even though the cell does not have any hosts.

Steps to reproduce
==================

In cell v2 environment, a cell to delete has only one compute host.

1. Delete the nova-compute service

> nova service-delete db8e01f5-021d-4c87-a4eb-f3e5089e6105

The records are soft deleted in the 'services' table and the 'compute_nodes' table of the cell database. 
But the record in 'host_mappings' table of api database is not deleted.

2. Delete the cell

> nova-manage cell_v2 delete_cell --cell_uuid 0fcd92ba-b257-4fbc-94d5-9ac6a77ccf81
There are existing hosts mapped to cell with uuid 0fcd92ba-b257-4fbc-94d5-9ac6a77ccf81.

The command fails with the message above.
It is caused because the host record remains in the 'host_mappings' table of api database.

But there is no ways to delete the host record in the 'host_mappings'
table.

Expected result
===============

The cell can be deleted if the cell does not have any hosts.
Or we should have the way to delete the host from the cell.

Actual result
=============

The cell cannot be deleted even though the cell does not have any hosts.
(We don't have the way to delete the host from the cell.)

Environment
===========

OS: Ubuntu 16.04.2 LTS
nova master(commit 8ca24bf1ff80f39b14726aca22b5cf52603ea5a0)
