dnsmasq-dhcp[6614]: DHCPDISCOVER(br100) 02:16:3e:2a:f0:d0 no address available

[Peng Yong]

i install openstack in fedora 17 testing:

# rpm -qa|grep openstack
openstack-nova-2012.1-0.8.e4.fc17.noarch
openstack-dashboard-2012.1-0.1.rc1.fc17.noarch
openstack-keystone-2012.1-0.10.e4.fc17.noarch
openstack-glance-2012.1-0.5.e4.fc17.noarch

it works in FlatDHCPManager, the instance get a IP address.
when i enable multi_host mode, it failed to get the DHCP address:

Can you try killall dnsmasq, delete br100 and restart nova-network.

AFAIK multi_host works fine, but you may have trouble switching from one to the other on an existing install. If it still doesn't work can you include the output of ip addr and the contents of the files in /var/lib/nova/networks/

cool. it works now.

i delete all bridge and restart dnsmasq.

thanks for Vish.

[Peng Yong (ppyy)]

it works now. i only recopy nova.conf and reboot it.
but i reboot it several times before. i will retest it later.
thanks
