Comment 27 for bug 1269418

It fails to unrescue when the vmware VM is in powered-on state and also it seems to be leaking when the vm is in ERROR state.

******* Wait until the -rescue VM gets powered on, then the nova seems to switch the state:

# nova delete foo

******* this leaves the -rescue VM in the vcenter.
