[openstack-dev] [qa] Very first VM launched won't response to ARP request

Hi,

I have seen this issue consistently.

I freshly install Ubuntu 14.04 onto Cisco UCS and use devstack to deploy OpenStack (stable Juno) to make it a Compute node.

For the very first VM launched at this node, it won’t respond to ARP request (I ping from the router namespace).

The Linux bridge tap interface shows it’s sending packets to the VM, and tcpdump confirms it.

Usually I would reboot the VM and the ping works fine afterwards.

Looking for suggestions on how to debug this issue?
