Description Andrew Bogott 2013-12-19 21:48:40 UTC 
The javascript api calls 'deleteInstance' on the instance object but skips the other steps that would otherwise be done in tryDeleteSubmit.  This means we're leaking ldap host records.
Comment 1 Andrew Bogott 2013-12-19 21:50:31 UTC 
Probably I should audit all of the API calls for similar problems.
Comment 2 Andrew Bogott 2013-12-20 15:39:52 UTC 
Well.. I can't reproduce this today.
Comment 3 Andrew Bogott 2013-12-27 18:53:41 UTC 
And now I can again.  It's intermittent, the ldap delete is sometimes failing without explanation.

The good news, we are at least /trying/ to do the ldap delete in all cases.  Well... maybe that's bad news.
Comment 4 Andrew Bogott 2014-03-19 18:36:03 UTC 
It is intermittent.   When it fails, the opendj log looks like this:

DELETE RES conn=2907494 op=3 msgID=4 result=50 message="The entry dc=i-0000019f.eqiad.wmflabs,ou=hosts,dc=wikimedia,dc=org cannot be deleted due to insufficient access rights" etime=0
