Matt Riedemann 7732f0e6f3 Add useful error log when _determine_version_cap raises DBNotAllowed
Change Icddbe4760eaff30e4e13c1e8d3d5d3f489dac3c4 was intended for the
API service to check all cells for the minimum nova-compute service
version when [upgrade_levels]/compute=auto.

That worked in the gate with devstack because we don't configure
nova-compute with access to the database and run nova-compute with
a separate nova-cpu.conf so even if nova-compute is on the same
host as the nova-api service, they aren't using the same config
file (nova-api runs with nova.conf which has access to the API DB
obviously).

The problem is when nova-compute is configured with
[upgrade_levels]/compute=auto and an [api_database]/connection,
there are flows that can try to hit the API database directly
because of the _determine_version_cap method. For example, the
_sync_power_states periodic task trying to stop an instance,
or even simple inter-compute communication over RPC like during
a resize.

This change simply catches the DBNotAllowed exception, logs a more
useful error message, and re-raises the exception. In addition,
the config help for the [api_database] group and "configuration"
option specifically are updated to mention they should not be set
on the nova-compute service.

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:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.
