No autoregistration on first startup after ISO install

[Thierry Carrez]

Testing 20091005 daily CD, UEC/Cluster install
After the install reboot, eucalyptus doesn't autoregister. The registration logs all contain:
ERROR: you need to be on the CLC host and the CLC needs to be running.
Restarting eucalyptus, or upgrading to a new eucalyptus package, autoregistration works correctly.

The only failure scenario seems to be when the first time the service is started also happens to be at system startup time.
I am wondering if we don't start eucalyptus at boot a little too early with:

start on runlevel [23]

Maybe the network and/or eth0 is not fully operational at that point, resulting in wrong addresses being used in /etc/eucalyptus/eucalyptus-ipaddr.conf. That might also explain the strange walrus 127.0.0.1 registration I experienced last week.

I fail to reproduce the same error on subsequent boots (purging packages, diverting start/restart, reinstall, putting start/restart back and reboot). Might be some first-boot DHCP query racing eucalyptus.

Could not reproduce on my 20091006 CD test.
Note that I had the following message in walrus registration logs:

::::::::::::::
/var/log/eucalyptus/walrus-registration.log
::::::::::::::
Adding WALRUS host 192.168.0.127
Walrus is not up on host 192.168.0.127: check the logs

SUCCESS: new walrus on host '192.168.0.127' successfully registered.

Closing as Fix released, anyone please reopen if you have autoregistration issues on >=20091006 CD installs.
