Hello,<div><br></div><div>Is it possible that, during snapshotting, libvirt just tears down virtual interface at some point, and then re-creates it, with hairpin_mode disabled again?</div><div>This bugfix [<a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/933640">https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/933640</a>] implies that fix works on spawn of instance. This means that upon resume after snapshot, hairpin is not restored. May be if we insert the _enable_hairpin() call in snapshot procedure, it helps.</div>
<div>We're currently investigating this issue in one of our environments, hope to come up with answer by tomorrow.</div><div><br></div><div>--</div><div>Best regards,</div><div>Oleg</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<p class="MsoNormal">It might be because there's a missing _enable_hairpin() call in the reboot()<br>
function. Try something like this...<br>
<br>
nova/virt/libvirt/connection.py, _hard_reboot():<br>
<br>
self._create_new_domain(xml)<br>
+ self._enable_hairpin(instance)<br>
self.firewall_driver.apply_instance_filter(instance, network_info)<br>
<br>
At least that's what I remember doing myself recently when testing after a<br>
reboot, don't know about snapshot.<br>
<br>
Folsom has changed enough that something different would need to be done there.<br>
