Bug Description

steps to reproduce the issue:

boot a vm

nova migrate vm1 (or nova resize)

wait for the vm to reach the VERIFY_RESIZE state

stop nova-compute (kill -9 or similar)

restart nova-compute

The process will terminate after a few seconds with the following error:

The only workaround I found consists in changing the VM status in the database.
nova delete before starting the service is not enough.

After executing a first set of tests, we can add that this error is not happening anymore with the current codebase (last commit in git log: 4a1f477df0dda3b10084bcb2b225379efa0ea8ae).
