Bug Description
Recently we restarted nova-compute at a time when REBUILD was happening. Nova seemed to have a problem and did not resume the operation, leading to the servers being stuck in REBUILD forever.
This can only be fixed by deleting the server, which is an extremely expensive operation until we have baremetal volumes.

I think the solution is to set the state of instance to fails state and let users delete them manually. Because delete instances automatically when nova restart is extremely heavy and make it unavailable for a longer time.
