Comment 3 for bug 1287447

Step to reproduce:

I boot from volume like this:

$ nova boot --flavor 2 --key-name sileht --nic net-id=d4021bdd-ac52-44cb-8943-1587c6fe9081 --block-device source=image,id=6f797908-b006-4036-9670-cc3c12c65d56,dest=volume,size=2,shutdown=PRESERVE,bootindex=0 NAME

And then

$ nova shelve 76f4c00d-707a-4426-baba-13217250cec0

Shelving looks ok, now I unshelve:

$ nova unshelve 76f4c00d-707a-4426-baba-13217250cec0

The task state stuck at 'unshelving'

$ nova list
+--------------------------------------+------+-------------------+------------+-------------+---------------------------------+
| ID | Name | Status | Task State | Power State | Networks |
