<div style="RIGHT: auto"><SPAN style="RIGHT: auto">Yes, I am running with the option --multi_host=T on both controller and compute nodes [I followed the same URL that you mentioned in your email]</SPAN></div>
<div style="RIGHT: auto"><SPAN style="RIGHT: auto">Controller node is running dnsmasq-dhcp correctly (There are 2 instances of it).

<DIV id=yiv646306041>Hi Jay,
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>If you are running nova-network in a mode that performs DHCP, you should be sure that the network Nova is connecting VMs to does not have your corporate DHCP server on it. Having two conflicting DHCP servers on the same network will give unpredictable results. What may be happening is a "race" between the two DHCP servers. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The second question is whether dnsmasq is actually running. You didn't say that you were using --multi_host=True, so by default the network may have been assigned to either of the two network-nodes you created. This would mean that dnsmasq might be running on either of the two servers running nova-network (either the controller server or compute server). Can you check if it is running on the other server? If it is not running on either, we'd probably have to see nova-network logs. For more info on the --multi_host flag, see: http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/existing-ha-networking-options.html</DIV>
