I was not able to reproduce this issue on the latest master. So I'm
setting this Invalid. If you can still see the issue then please set
this back to New.

Title:
  Setting vendordata_providers to DynamicJSON causes config drive to
  stop working

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Description
  ===========

  When the vendordata_providers option is set to DynamicJSON, the config
  drive ceases to function and instances fail to spawn with a
  'InvalidMetadataPath: /openstack/2013-10-17/vendor_data.json' error.
  Specifically, this issue occurred when spawning amphora for Octavia.
  This issue can be worked around by adding StaticJSON (the default
  value)into the vendordata_providers option.

  Steps to reproduce
  ==================
  After an initial deployment and validation of Octavia on Queens, I set the nova vendordata_providers option to DynamicJSON.  After setting this value, Octavia was no longer able to spawn new amphora instances. This was isolated to the config drive not being available (see log below). 

  I was able to work around the issue by adding the default StaticJSON
  value back into the nova.conf along with DynamicJSON (i.e.,
  vendordata_providers: "DynamicJSON,StaticJSON").

  Expected result
  ===============
  The vendordata_providers flag should be able to be set to DynamicJSON only without requiring StaticJSON to be specified as well.

  
  Environment
  ===========
  OpenStack Queens (nova-r17.1.0)
