Folks,

I have setup kolla-ansible and configured octavia using the o-hm0 interface
with the tenant and it works. For production I think I should use VLAN
based provider for octavia management network so this is what I did

I have created a bond0.41 dedicated interface on all 3 controller nodes and
created vlan 41 on all network switches.

This is what my global.yml looks like

## Octivia
enable_octavia: "yes"
octavia_network_interface: "bond0.41"

octavia_amp_flavor:
  name: "amphora"
  is_public: no
  vcpus: 2
  ram: 2048
  disk: 5

octavia_amp_network:
  name: lb-mgmt-net
  provider_network_type: vlan
  provider_segmentation_id: 41
  provider_physical_network: physnet1
  external: false
  shared: false
  subnet:
    name: lb-mgmt-subnet
    cidr: "192.168.41.0/24"
    allocation_pool_start: "192.168.41.100"
    allocation_pool_end: "192.168.41.200"
    enable_dhcp: yes

After running the playbook all get setup as per document. When I create
loadbalancer it just get stuck in PENDING status.

[1] Document saying make sure your octavia_network_interface is connected
to openvswitch. Do I need to connect manually or will kolla-ansible do that
for me?  If I am going to do that then on which bridge I should attach
br-ex or br-int ?
