Hi,
We use Openstack Wallaby installed through Kolla-ansible on this setup.
Here's a quick rundown of the issue we just noticed:
-We try popping an instance which fails because of a storage issue.
-Nova tries to create the instance on 3 different nodes before failing.
-We notice that instances on these 3 nodes and only those instances
cannot connect to each other anymore.
-Doing Tcpdump tests, we realize that pings are received by each
instance, but never replied to.
-Restarting the neutron-openvswitch-agent container fixes this issue.
I suspect l2population might have something to do with this. Is the ARP
table rebuilt when the openvswitch-agent is restarted?
