Nova Compute fails to start when there are more than one proxy per vCenter (two nova compute services running on different vms) and instances are provisioned in the clusters.

Reason:

on the start up of the nova-compute, it checks the instances reported by the driver are still associated with this host. If they are not, it destroys them.
method _destroy_evacuated_instances calls the driver list_instances, which lists all the instances in the vCenter, though they are managed by different compute.

log file attached.
