Yeah these warnings are OK - if you look in /etc/os-collect-config.conf on
the nodes, you will see that we only configure the "cfn" collector, and
these warnings are coming from the other (unconfigured) collectors.

Perhaps we should look at making those a bit quieter, as you only need on
configured datasource for os-collect-config to work.

If you want to prove basic network connectivity for os-collect config, in
addition to checking the logs you can do something like:

http://fpaste.org/279853/98174414/

Here we see we can ping the configured IP, and wget shows we get a response
from the heat API on port 8000 (the IncompleteSignature is OK, because we
didn't include a signature in the request, but anything like no route to
host is obviously not OK).

Re the original "Authentication failed. Please try again" error - Dan is
correct, that nearly always happens due to a timeout, e.g due to the
keystone token expiring.  Again a clearer error would help here.  After we
fix [1] this will be easier, because you'll always hit the heat stack
timeout instead of the keystone token expiring.
