This commit fixes checking of a VM that has already been identified as ready. Without this change a ready VM that has failed will be identified as having failed, but will not successfully be removed from the ready queue. Additionally, the default vm_checktime value has been reduced from 15 to 1 to ensure that ready VMs are checked within one minute of the time they have reached the ready state by default.
Lastly, the docker-compose files are updated to specify that the redis
instance used is a local redis instance.
