                 - CentOS,
                 - nova-network/flat-dhcp,
                 - ceph for volumes and images
            2. Add 3 nodes with controller and ceph OSD roles
            3. Add 1 node with ceph OSD roles
            4. Add 2 nodes with compute and ceph OSD roles
            5. Deploy the cluster
            6. Run OSTF tests

Because it isn't supposed to be started, since nova-api starts metadata listener, here is an example from /var/log/nova/api.log :

2014-10-28 16:48:31.538 18893 INFO nova.wsgi [-] metadata listening on 0.0.0.0:8775
