after I input: swift-auth-add-user -K devauth -a system root testpass the terminal output: update failed: 503 service unavailable

the information is as follow: I have 3 vms,:auth node, proxy node, storage node

openstack-proxy 192.168.1.127 openstack-auth 192.168.1.130 openstack-storage 192.168.1.125

storage node has 3 devices: sda5,sda6,sda7 /dev/sda5 4.7G 4.3M 4.7G 1% /srv/node/sda5 /dev/sda6 4.7G 4.3M 4.7G 1% /srv/node/sda6 /dev/sda7 5.6G 4.3M 5.6G 1% /srv/node/sda7 /dev/sr0 686M 686M 0 100% /media/Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS i386
