This adds a wedge between nova-compute and the database implementation to specifically catch, log, and deny accesses. Theoretically, this should not be needed as a production environment would not even have the compute nodes configured to talk to the database. However, testing and upgraded environments may retain database access and thus avoid hitting real issues that can be fixed up prior to release. Putting this into the tree now will help ensure we have a consistent error scenario for test setups prior to release. Note that if nova is configured to use a local conductor, we do not insert the wedge, which provides an easy out for anyone needing to get a production system past a missed database access. Related to bp no-db-compute. Based on Russell's original tracer hack: I328fa92d5bfdadd5022f5c7efe981396d8ae7962 Change-Id: I478230220633e0d2ff94b6a4d756e07eab8517d7
OpenStack Nova README
OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide variety of virtualization technologies, including KVM, Xen, LXC, VMWare, and more. In addition to its native API, it includes compatibility with the commonly encountered Amazon EC2 and S3 APIs.
OpenStack Nova is distributed under the terms of the Apache License, Version 2.0. The full terms and conditions of this license are detailed in the LICENSE file.
Nova primarily consists of a set of Python daemons, though it requires and integrates with a number of native system components for databases, messaging and virtualization capabilities.

To learn how to deploy OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:
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 wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:
Developers should also join the discussion on the mailing list, at:
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests. Further developer focused documentation is available at:
