Bug Description
Hi All,
I'm fairly new to the OpenStack community but I can come up to speed very quickly.... so bare with me if I do not or mis understand something.
I started building a lab as a PoC (Prof of Concept) for the OpenStack Folsom Edition based on Cisco documentation - link. It's pretty much a document that Cisco put together based/inspired on/from: Bilel Msekni OpenStack Folsom Install Guide - link, Emilien Macchi's Folsom guide - link and the OpenStack Offical Core document.
Th environment is configured as follow:
- 3 x HP DL380 G6 (12 Cores, 48 GB RAM, 12x600GB of local SAS disks and 4 x1Gbps NIC )
- 1 Control Node: All nova core/shared and API services running
- 1 Network Node (Quantum): dhcp, L3, ovs-agent and ovs-plugin
- 1 Compute Node: nova compute
- OS Platform: Ubuntu 12.04 TLS
I've attached an overview diagram of the deployment.
Everything works perfectly as per design with one major exception: I'm able to spawn VMs but they're not getting any IPs. I'm using GRE in tunnel mode for th L2 configuration. I choose this mode because it's far simpler to implement and have no limitation on VLANs. I've looked in all the logs and I cannot pinpoint anything as to what's causing this issue. I create 2 images in Glance (one for Cirros and the other for Ubuntu cloud image) and both images are producing the same issue: VM is spawned and during the boot time they issue a dhcp discover and no lease is offered (at least from the logs).
I can appreciate if you give me some direction on where I should start looking or if someone have ever came across this issue before. let me know if you need logs or config files for my deployment.
Thank you,
Abdi
I see you mention that you followed the Cisco document for your PoC. Did you also use the Cisco folsom packages?
