Hi,

I am running an openstack cookbooks, however the chef-client cannot run very smoothly most of the time. some error information as below comes out when running the cookbook:
Recipe: openstack-network::openvswitch
  * service[quantum-server] action restart
    - restart service service[quantum-server]

  * service[quantum-plugin-openvswitch-agent] action restart
    * service[quantum-plugin-openvswitch-agent]: unable to locate the init.d script!
================================================================================
Error executing action `restart` on resource 'service[quantum-plugin-openvswitch-agent]'
================================================================================


Chef::Exceptions::Service
-------------------------
service[quantum-plugin-openvswitch-agent]: unable to locate the init.d script!


The log information is listed as follows:
* Chef::Exceptions::Exec occurred in chef run: package[openstack-nova-console] (openstack-compute::vncproxy line 35) had an error: Chef::Exceptions::Exec:  returned 1, expected 0
---- Begin output of  ----
STDOUT: STDERR:

Error Downloading Packages:
  openstack-nova-console-2013.1.3-2.el6.noarch: failure: openstack-nova-console-2013.1.3-2.el6.noarch.rpm from openstack: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.

---- End output of  ----
* Chef::Exceptions::Service occurred in delayed notification: service[nova-console] (openstack-compute::vncproxy line 50) had an error: Chef::Exceptions::Service: service[nova-console]: unable to locate the init.d script!
* Chef::Exceptions::Service occurred in delayed notification: service[nova-consoleauth] (openstack-compute::vncproxy line 57) had an error: Chef::Exceptions::Service: service[nova-consoleauth]: unable to locate the init.d script!


From the above log file, the chef client sometimes cannot download the specific package successfully, then the cookbooks failed.

I am wondering what is the best way to handle this situation in the chef world. 
If someone can give me some hints, it will be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Sam
