JuJu, LXC, OpenStack charm problem w/Nova & Quantum

[brian mullan]

OpenStack itself says it supports LXC:
http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/config-reference/content/lxc.html

and although a bit dated this OpenStack doc shows (under Ubuntu Natty)...
some config setup info:

https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/LXC

My orig post had said 2 OpenStack "services" were left in Red State with
some sort of message about problem with hooks.

The two were:

   - nova-compute
   - quantum-gateway

I can kind of understand the "quantum-gateway"
due to lxc/host networking being a bit different.

But I just wasn't comfortable that the *nova-compute* part of the charm had
a problem because that is just for "compute" resources.
The "storage" services of OpenStack in the Charm had already gone into a
"green" state.

I would like to suggest that there may be a bug in the JuJu OpenStack
Charm's hooks related either/both of the above 2 "services"
when used with LXC (re "local" provider).

Now as I have not tried to deploy that charm to say Amazon... I guess  I
could be jumping the gun and perhaps this problem
exists w/other environments?
