Open Stack

Thanks for this help.
I also have 2 control nodes.
But since my first message, I have other problems. Some new instances (for some accounts, on some l3 networks) do not receive their addresses through DHCP. For example, even for the admin at default account, I have these problems.
With my test account too, whereas if I ask a user to try, on some networks it works and some doesn't.
On the other hand, for all, everything works on external networks (even dhcp).

Well, this all seems impossible to fix. I'm not sure I can do what you say because I don't know the order of services. And there are so many logs. I look carefully at these logs, but I can't find the exact problem.

I plan to reinstall because it's an Openstack used by students every year, and there I have a month to get it working. It's just demoralizing to have to redo everything when the system was working so well. On the other hand, it would be an opportunity to correct the mistakes I made (in particular, switching from CentosStream to Ubuntu for servers and containers).

thanks again

In a HA cloud with two control nodes (the third joined just recently) when one node was shut down (accidentally) I saw basically the same effects you're describing. I could create new networks and instances were started successfully and also got their IPs via DHCP while existing VMs didn't properly work (at least the dhcp part for self-service networks). I'm still not sure what exactly the root cause is as I can't reproduce it in my test lab, and retrying it in a production cluster is not a good idea. ;-)
> I got things to work, but it's still unclear what exactly it was. It's possible that you could see hints in the neutron logs that something's not right, I don't recall the exact message but it was something like "dhcp agent doesn't work because the server is overloaded". By the way, what is the number of dhcp agents per network you have in neutron.conf?
