Comment 0 for bug 1472412

After runnign some rally scenarios on my main openstack (Solaris, Juno, mix of x86 & sparc, zfssa for storage) I noticed in the admin panel in horizon that several volumes created by the test were still present but in an ERROR_DELETING state.

Setting these to AVAILABLE and trying to delete them manually failed and they changed back to the ERROR_DELETING state.

The volumes were created on an attached ZFSSA (7320) however the volumes were no longer present on that device.

Looking in the cinder-volume log on the host that has the zfssa cinder driver we find a trace of the error:

So there may be a race here somewhere where the volume got deleted but cinder still has it.

Anyway, it seems that we should handle this a bit better. I'd suggest in this particular case where we have established that connection to the zfssa is working correctly that instead of throwing an exception that will cause a stack trace and an ERROR_DELETING state and have the user have to hunt through logs that zfssarest detects that the volume is not present (assumed already deleted) and allows cinder to delete it from its database of current volumes.
