Bug Description
Another issue rebooting the controller. My controller has mac address
00:e4:c9:1b:bd:d3 and ip address 192.0.2.25
When we boot the controller we should see DHCP request in undercloud syslog like so:
Jun 11 10:44:03 undercloud-
Jun 11 10:44:03 undercloud-
Jun 11 10:44:05 undercloud-
Jun 11 10:44:05 undercloud-
But when I reboot the controller I regular see request like so:
Jun 11 10:44:31 undercloud-
Jun 11 10:44:36 undercloud-
Jun 11 10:44:48 undercloud-
This is a known issue with openvswitch. http://
I tried to configure this on controller by updating the ensure-bridge script to add the following line into the /etc/network/
ovs_extra set bridge br-ex other-config:
Running ovs-vsctl list bridge br-ex confirms the other_config value is set but this doesn't work all the time.
Running that command in network-interface upstart job, I see the following debug in /var/log/
