Bug Description
We have seen this issue in a Diablo-2 setup. If a compute server is down (nova-compute not running / node crashed) the VMs hosted on that server cannot be terminated - hence are consuming instance/
We need to have some way of updating the DB to wipe an instance even if the appropriate host is not contactable - and of having nodes check on boot if "their" VMs are still all there.
Version = 2011.3-d2 + some bug fixes.

What do expect to happen when:
a) nova-compute stops working, but the physical machine is up
b) the nova-compute server dies
And we can't necessarily differentiate the two.
