<div dir="ltr">Logan, thanks for your reply.  I've been very conscientious of NTP, so I'm very confident that that is not an issue.<div><br></div><div style>Gary: so in this case the "agent"<font color="#333333" face="Consolas, Liberation Mono, Courier, monospace"><span style="line-height:19px"> </span></font>= quantum-plugin-openvswitch-agent, and "plugin" = quantum-server.  That's confusing.  And what you're saying is that the ovs plugin/agent - whatever it is - is simply stating that it assumes it's out of sync since it's starting up, and it's going to phone home.  Is that right?  Thanks!</div>

        So I'm setting up Folsom on Ubuntu 12.10, using the Github
        Folsom Install Guide:
        <div><br>
          <div><a href="https://github.com/mseknibilel/OpenStack-Folsom-Install-guide/blob/master/OpenStack_Folsom_Install_Guide_WebVersion.rst" target="_blank">https://github.com/mseknibilel/OpenStack-Folsom-Install-guide/blob/master/OpenStack_Folsom_Install_Guide_WebVersion.rst</a><br clear="all">

            </div>
            <div>After following the steps to instantiate the
              network node, I'm left with 3 new but downed OVS bridges,
              and three error-filled logs for ovs-plugin, dhcp-agent,
              and l3-agent.  I rectify it with this:</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div><a href="http://pastebin.com/L43d9q8a" target="_blank">http://pastebin.com/L43d9q8a</a><br>
            </div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>When I restart the networking and then restart
              the plugin and agents, everything seems to work, but I'm
              getting this strange INFO message in
              /var/log/quantum/openvswitch-agent.log:</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>2013-03-11 17:48:02     INFO
              [quantum.plugins.openvswitch.agent.ovs_quantum_agent]
              Agent out of sync with plugin!<br>
            </div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>I traced it to this .py file:</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div><a href="https://github.com/openstack/quantum/blob/master/quantum/plugins/openvswitch/agent/ovs_quantum_agent.py" target="_blank">https://github.com/openstack/quantum/blob/master/quantum/plugins/openvswitch/agent/ovs_quantum_agent.py</a><br>

            </div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>Now I realize that this is and INFO message,
              not an error.  But I would still like to know what this
              means.  Thanks!</div>

    The Quantum agents need to retrieve the port data from the Quantum
    service. When the agents start this is done automatically (hence the
    message that you have seen). This can also happen if there is an
    exception in the agent or if the agent is unable to communicate with
    the service - for example there is a problem with the connection
    between the agent and the service (link down, etc).<br>
