<div dir="ltr">Hello Andrew,<div><br></div><div>Searching further, I find "neutron-ovs-cleanup" mentioned in the admin guide:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content/install_neutron-l3.html">http://docs.openstack.org/admin-guide-cloud/content/install_neutron-l3.html</a><br>
</div><div><br></div><div>which says:</div><div><br></div><div>"If you reboot a node that runs the L3 agent, you must run the neutron-ovs-cleanup command before the neutron-l3-agent service starts."</div><div><br>
</div><div>So I believe this service should start during server bootup of network node (where neutron-l3-agent service runs). Maybe they failed to include this in the official admin guide.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra">

<div dir="ltr">Neutron itself starts the dnsmasq processes for tenant networks (neutron-dhcp-agent is the service for this I believe), so you should not enable dnsmasq in the system startup unless you are using another instance of dnsmasq for a non-neutron purpose (such as providing dns and dhcp services on your physical network to bare metal systems).<div>
