Comment 2 for bug 937379

It actually might be better to add configurable retry support to the Quantum client library itself: https://github.com/openstack/python-novaclient .

Currently, QuantumManager in Nova has its own copy of the Quantum client, but we'll remove that early in Folsom and replace it with a dependency on python-quantumclient. Would be good to add support to the client lib itself, then add a flag to nova to pass to the client lib.

Adding it to the client lib also means that other code using the client lib can benefit from it.
