Swift cant be reached and from what i can tell its not running. Which in turn causes gnocchi to fail to start properly and ceilometer upgrade fails. The issue seems to be with swift. But we need better logs to confirm.

related bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/+bug/1719421

Indeed, looks like the Swift services on the controller nodes are all in state failed.

Not sure why this happens, there are no Swift logfiles and /var/log/messages is empty?

I think root cause for this is the same as https://bugs.launchpad.net/tripleo/+bug/1719421

We should have the logs in place in tonights run, now that 1719421 is closed
