Rate limit on Compiling packages OpenStack

[rkoster]

When deploying on the cf-release on OpenStack, during the compiling packages phase the deployment get canceled after receiving a number of errors.
The error message I receive is This request was rate-limited., the {ip} in is the ip of the openstack api.

gorouter/2.1-dev: Expected(200) <=> Actual(413 Request Entity Too Large)

I have had a similar problem in the instance creation phase but this could be solved by setting:

properties:
  director:                                                                                                                                    
    max_threads: 10  

In the manifest of the big bosh.

@rkoster Can you please confirm if your OpenStack version is Essex? This problem has been fixed for Folsom, but seems that Essex returns a different over limit message.

[rkoster]

Yes I'm using Essex.

@rkoster Solved per PR #101 (OpenStack CPI helper will now detect "overLimitFault"). But until we release a new stemcell, you should need to create your own stemcell.

Thanks @frodenas, problem indeed seems to be fixed in master.
