Comment 8 for bug 1262906

Jim got a hold of a box having this problem and we were able to do a bit more digging.

The nova-manage db_sync was a red herring, the timestamps in console.html and syslog.txt our out of sync.

We set up devstack to not use rsyslog, but swift is still using it. So for now the solution is to make swift not use syslog when we set SYSLOG=False in localrc.

It looks like there is possibly a strange interaction between
openvswitch and syslog that is making syslog not shutdown properly
