DHCP problem in grizzly

 

Hi,

I have installed grizzly with quantum and ovs-plugin. It seems that grizzly allocates the third address of each subnet for dhcp. (In folsom it was the second address). This means that the VMs will get addresses .2, .4, .5, ...

In my setup the first VM always boots fine and gets the address x.x.x.2. This can be seen in the syslog:

May 20 08:29:23 grizzly-236 dnsmasq-dhcp[2190]: DHCPDISCOVER(tapdbcef145-f5) 10.0.2.15 fa:16:3e:2d:0d:e0
May 20 08:29:23 grizzly-236 dnsmasq-dhcp[2190]: DHCPOFFER(tapdbcef145-f5) 10.20.30.2 fa:16:3e:2d:0d:e0
May 20 08:29:23 grizzly-236 dnsmasq-dhcp[2190]: DHCPREQUEST(tapdbcef145-f5) 10.20.30.2 fa:16:3e:2d:0d:e0
May 20 08:29:23 grizzly-236 dnsmasq-dhcp[2190]: DHCPACK(tapdbcef145-f5) 10.20.30.2 fa:16:3e:2d:0d:e0 10-20-30-2

The problem comes when I start the second VM. Nova shows that the x.x.x.4 is allocated

root@grizzly-236:~# nova list
+--------------------------------------+----------+--------+------------------------+
| ID                                   | Name     | Status | Networks               |
+--------------------------------------+----------+--------+------------------------+

| 4f26975c-995d-403d-88b0-e7bbf189baad | q-test-2 | ACTIVE | tenant1-net=10.20.30.4 |
+--------------------------------------+----------+--------+------------------------+

But from syslog I see that the answer to the DHCPDISCOVER is "no address available"

May 20 08:33:34 grizzly-236 dnsmasq-dhcp[2190]: DHCPDISCOVER(tapdbcef145-f5) 10.0.2.15 fa:16:3e:fc:1f:9a no address available

When I restart the quantum-dhcp-server the problem disappears. This can be seen from the syslog:

What could be the problem? Have you seen similar behavior? If yes, how did you fix this?

Best regards,
Johanna
