Hello,

If you a cloud image, cloud-init set the IP address from neutron-dhcp- server. You should check neutron dhcp server and metadata agent log and verify connectivity between your instance and DHCP server and try to contact metadata server:

wget 169.254.169.254

Best regards, Romain

I have used kolla ansible to deploy openstack on two machine servers, but after setting up the images and the virtual networks, the vm instances don't get the ip address that neutron provides for them, so I had to manually set the addresses inside the vm's, but even with that I can't seem to connect vm's to neither internet nor any other network. I'm on centos 7 and trying to deploy openstack train using kolla ansible 9.3.1 Ansible 2.9.25 And neutron open vSwitch.

I am away from my computer, but this has happened to me before. As you know, neutron must use vswitch to create the gateway to connect the private vlan to the outside per your instructions. Sometimes it does not. A few times it was just that the vms would not get the DHCP-provided IP, but it seems you are past that and manually entered the internal IP and route. If that is the case, the next thing is to go to vswitch and see if you can follow the network to see what is missing.
