Message #21801
Re: Agent out of sync with plugin!
Logan, thanks for your reply. I've been very conscientious of NTP, so I'm
very confident that that is not an issue.
Gary: so in this case the "agent" = quantum-plugin-openvswitch-agent, and
"plugin" = quantum-server. That's confusing. And what you're saying is
that the ovs plugin/agent - whatever it is - is simply stating that it
assumes it's out of sync since it's starting up, and it's going to phone
home. Is that right? Thanks!
