When bug 1709902 was fixed in I0df401a7c91f012fdb25cb0e6b344ca51de8c309 the fix assumed that when the _destroy_evacuated_instances() is called during the init of the nova-compute service the resource tracker already knows the compute node ids associated to the given compute host. This is not true and therefore _destroy_evacuated_instances fails with an exception and does not clean up the evacuated instance. The solution for the original bug included a functional regression test. However the functional test env is not capable of fully simulate a nova-compute service restart. The service only stopped then started again. This allows some in memory state of the compute service to survive the simulated restart. This caused that the functional test was not able to catch that the above described assumption is not correct.

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:
