I use Juno version, 2014.2.
Check the status of nova-compute service after stop ironic-api service, and get it:
# systemctl status openstack-nova-compute.service

   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/openstack-nova-compute.service; enabled)

Mar 11 12:01:22 controller systemd[1]: Started OpenStack Nova Compute Server.

But in the log file of nova-compute:
2015-03-11 13:40:56.502 28778 TRACE nova.openstack.common.periodic_task NovaException: Error contacting Ironic server for 'node.list'. Attempt 60 of 60

Then start ironic-api service, and the exception was gone.

IMHO this flow does not process properly. When ironic-api service stopped, nova-compute service should be exited. But now it was running. End-user can launch one instance because 'nova-compute' service is up.
