Wrong DNS Servers in /etc/resolv.conf

[Anda-Maria Nicolae]

Hi all,

I have a setup of 3 VMs: one OpenStack node, one Contrail controller node and 1 Contrail compute node.
All 3 VMs use RedHat 7.4. The 3 VMs run on an CentOS7 server.
I have installed Contrail R5.0 on my setup using contrail-ansible-deployer/.

I have created a new ipam, named "myipam", with the following parameters:
DNS Method: Tenant
Tenant DNS Server IPs: 8.8.8.8
Domain Name: google.com

Then, I have created a network, named "mynet", and a subnet inside "mynet" that uses "myipam", with DNS options checked.

In the DNS Server(s) section from mynet I have added 2 DNS servers: "1.1.1.1" and "2.2.2.2".

Afterwards, I have booted a VM in OpenStack, which uses "mynet". Then, I have run inside the VM:
cat /etc/resolv.conf
and it shows:
nameserver 8.8.8.8
search google.com

These are the settings from "myipam". Expected behavior was to use the settings from the DNS Server(s) section from mynet.

However, if I add only 1 server in the DNS Server(s) section from mynet (let this be "1.1.1.1") and then I reboot the VM, I have:
cat /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 1.1.1.1
search google.com

Thanks,
Anda

nameservers should be in /etc/resolv.conf is 1.1.1.1 2.2.2.2
since control node is not sending in the proper format[when more than dns servers are configured] ,agent discards it and uses ipams dnsservers info.

agent dhcp discard message:

space should be there between dns-servers in dhcp-option-value

since it has to be fixed control node, reassigning to ananth.

Thanks,

Populated configuration format is incorrect, either by the provisioning scripts or by one of the config components that is storing in the db. Can you please have some one from the config team to look into this.

Thanks

From Config, DNS entries at dhcp option value looks good. Could you revisit and point us where do you see incorrect config param?

Revert incorrect fix from https://review.opencontrail.org/#/c/35856/

There were two issues with the fix made before.

1. All spaces inside link attribute was erased, which is clearly incorrect.
2. JSON supports NULL already. We need to check for null and then set
the link attribute as an empty object if attr data turns out to be null.
