Hi,

If I am correct this is not possible currently, but I remember I was working on a solution, but unfortunately I stopped at some point because kolla upstream didn't want to maintain.

In attachment you can find patches for kolla and kolla-ansible and our idea.

We added python script to kolla container and provide netplan style configuration by kolla-ansible ..so openvswitch starts and configured networking as it was set in configuration (if i remember ...it is quite long time....and of course it was not final version ...but if i remember it somehow worked). 

So, you can check it and maybe we can discuss this feature again :) 

Thanks,
Kevko

Hello 
I use kolla ansible wallaby version . 
my compute node has only one port . is it possible to use this server ? as I know openstack compute need 2 port one for management and other for external user network . Im using provider_networks and it seems neutron_external_interface could not be the same as network_interface because openvswitch need to create br-ex bridge on separate port 
is there any solution that i can config my compute with 1 port ?
