PS
I presume the problem is neutron, because instances on new kvm nodes remain in building state e do not aquire address.
Probably the netron db imported from old openstack installation has some difrrences ....probably I must check defferences from old and new neutron services configuration files.

that we run libvirt inside a container. Have you stopped libvirt from
running on the host?
