Comment 3 for bug 1997567

Hi Jack,

I think the issue is the protocol specified, OVN Octavia provider just support SOURCE_IP_PORT protocol for the pool, it looks like the Horizon UI is sending SOURCE_IP and the error is the expected behaviour, OVN provider is rejecting the request with the msg:

'octavia.common.exceptions.ProviderUnsupportedOptionError: Provider 'ovn' does not support a requested option: OVN provider does not support SOURCE_IP algorithm
'

if you replicate the same command using SOURCE_IP_PORT instead of you will get a success request.

So I think we should close this bug and request support from the Horizon panel, I don't have a devstack vm with Horizon UI deployed right now to test it, but I trust your testing enough to go ahead with that proposal.
