Re: dhcp is not leasing an ip address in vlan mode

 

Hi:

I had a similar problem as Vijay:

"Network controller assigns a private ip address to the vm launched on compute node. However, I still cannot ping this ip address from the network(controller node). I am running nova-network service only on the controller."

"can't connect to remote host (169.254.169.254): Network is unreachable"
I "solved" it when I installed nova-network in all my compute nodes.
I don´t use NAT but only routing, so each node is the default gateway to instances that are running on it.

I don´t know if this workaround is good for you, but it is the best I got.

Regards....

Asunto: Re: [Openstack] dhcp is not leasing an ip address in vlan mode

do you see sent and received packets on the vlan?  I would suspect that you actually don't have the vlans trunked on the ports so the packets aren't making it across the switch.

This sounds like it might be working properly. In VLAN mode, all
instances are connected to one of the project vlans. The .1 address
(gateway, dhcp, etc) exists on an interface on the nova-network node
(or one of them, in the case that you are running multiple. This
interface is bridged to a tagged interface on the appropriate vlan
tag. On the nova-compute nodes, a vnet interface for the instance is
bridged to the vlan tagged interface. On the compute node, there isn't
an IP interface on this network, so the private IP for instances isn't
reachable, even if the instance is running on the same node.

The canonical test for correct network function is if an instance is
reachable via ping from the nova-network server that is currently
serving the instance's project network.
