Previously, if _ensure_resource_provider encountered any error from the placement REST API, it would (sometimes log a message and) return None. Furthermore, a name conflict while creating the provider was treated the same as a UUID conflict, which would actually result in None being returned. With this change set, the error paths that previously returned None now raise one of the new ResourceProviderRetrievalFailed or ResourceProviderCreationFailed exceptions; and the name conflict path is detected and treated as an error condition. Note: This change set only touches the SchedulerReportClient side of these error conditions - it makes no attempt to add error handling to its callers. Case in point, the API samples tests needed fixing because they were previously running into the name conflict error condition, but not noticing. As currently implemented, the new exceptions will percolate up to ComputeManager.update_available_resource_for_node like any others coming from SchedulerReportClient, where they will be logged and ignored.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
