The except block in comment 1 is not entered, because the exception doesn't get raised until after that, line 652 in stable/queens:

The links in comment 2 all appear to be from master. I wouldn't be surprised if master is also affected, but I'm seeing this in stable/queens, so we probably want to look there first.

[scheduler]max_attempts is not changed from the default (3) and the create requests do not appear to be specifying a specific host/node.
