Public bug reported:

During a volume detach operation, Nova compute attempts to remove the
volume from libvirt for the instance before proceeding to remove the
storage lun from the underlying compute host. If Nova discovers that the
volume was not found in the instance's libvirt definition then it
ignores that error condition and returns (after issuing a warning
message "Ignoring DiskNotFound exception while detaching").

However, under certain failure scenarios it may be that although the
libvirt definition for the volume has been removed for the instance that
the associated storage lun on the compute server may not have been fully
cleaned up yet.
