middleware container sync test fails 25% of the time

[David Kranz]

This test is marked slow and so only runs in the periodic tempest all job and the nova cells job (not sure why it runs there). The last week had 627 failures and 158 success. The failure is authentication which I suppose is just a token timeout. Here is a sample log:

Hi,
Provided sample log file gives "file not found" please verify ?

There is some weirdness in the way logs urls are displayed. You can see it if you add .gz to the end of the url.

The patch is abandoned and it is nice to take a look periodic jobs later

Looking at data, the test fails about 30% of the times it runs: http://status.openstack.org/openstack-health/#/test/tempest.api.object_storage.test_container_sync_middleware.ContainerSyncMiddlewareTest.test_container_synchronization?duration=P3M

Looking at [1] the test has been working fine at least for the last 6 months. It seems that the issue got somehow resolved and the bug is no more relevant. If you hit it again, please, feel free to reopen it.
