Bug Description

During a recent incident, we discovered that in the transition of ceph to ceph-mon, the new 3 ceph-mon units get different IPs from the old mons (necessarily, and understood). This gets communicated through all of the relation updates as well as the live ceph clients updating their monmap. However, there is a bug that we uncovered in Nova when performing this ceph->ceph-mon+ceph-osd migration on a trusty/mitaka cloud.

http://pad.lv/1452641 - Static Ceph mon IP addresses in connection_info can prevent VM startup

I believe it should be noted in this document that any previously deployed nova instances using cinder to interface with ceph, or using nova's libvirt-image-backend=rbd settings will necessitate a manual database update to change the old 3 ceph-mon IPs to the new IPs.

The stale data for cinder will need to be updated in the block_device_mapping table.
