[Bug 1944779] Re: VirtualInterfaceCreateException due to "Timeout waiting for [('network-vif-plugged'..."

 

Just had this same issue on charmed Xena, and managed to workaround it
by following Tolga Kaprol's suggestion at
https://discourse.charmhub.io/t/community-opinion-on-reliability-and-
success-rate-of-ussuri-deployments/3510/3

** Also affects: charm-neutron-api

Title:
  VirtualInterfaceCreateException due to "Timeout waiting for
  [('network-vif-plugged'..."

Status in OpenStack Neutron API Charm:
  New
Status in neutron:
  New
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Seeing this occasionally in the gate recently, instance spawn fails
  with VirtualInterfaceCreateException after timing out 300 seconds
  waiting for the 'network-vif-plugged' event from neutron. The event
  never arrives (before or after we begin waiting).

  Here's log excerpts showing how it looks [1]:
