[Bug 622698] [NEW] [maverick] Autoregistration of components fails at boot time (euca_conf returns 1)

[Thierry Carrez]

Public bug reported:

Testing with 20100823 ISO, eucalyptus 2.0~bzr1233-0ubuntu1
Topology 1 (CLC+Walrus+CC+SC / NC)

/var/log/eucalyptus/registration.log shows that Walrus and CC fail to
register (euca_conf returns 1); the SC loops waiting for the cluster to
appear.

Running manually, once booted:
$ sudo -u eucalyptus /usr/share/eucalyptus/registration/walrus <ip>
$ sudo -u eucalyptus /usr/share/eucalyptus/registration/cluster <clustername> <ip>
works. The SC autoregisters correctly once the cluster registers.

I suspect our current logic in upstart script makes it try to register
too early. uec-component-listener starts when eucalyptus-cloud and
eucalyptus-cc are started, and maybe it should wait a bit more.

This is definitely a race, and the 5400rpm disks on the test laptop
probably slows down the noisy component startup to a point where boot-
time autoregistration fails.
