[Openstack] Unable to launch a vm

Thank you for for your answer.
Yes, openvswitch (ovsdb-server and ovs-vswitchd) is launched on both the computer and networker nodes (not the controller). 

On the computer node:
#ovs-vsctl show
ddb0b9e5-3112-40d9-8f40-e4619c957e06
    Bridge "br-eth1"
        Port "phy-br-eth1"
            Interface "phy-br-eth1"
        Port "br-eth1"
            Interface "br-eth1"
                type: internal
        Port "eth1"
            Interface "eth1"
    Bridge br-int
        Port br-int
            Interface br-int
                type: internal
        Port "int-br-eth1"
            Interface "int-br-eth1"
    ovs_version: "1.11.0"


On networker node:
#ovs-vsctl show
566dca7e-e1da-40fc-93cb-3f077cd7b7e2
    Bridge br-int
        Port "int-br-eth2"
            Interface "int-br-eth2"
        Port br-int
            Interface br-int
                type: internal
        Port "tap4a791b41-d8"
            tag: 1
            Interface "tap4a791b41-d8"
    Bridge br-ex
        Port "tapa48e20db-cc"
            Interface "tapa48e20db-cc"
        Port "eth1"
            Interface "eth1"
        Port br-ex
            Interface br-ex
                type: internal
    Bridge "br-eth2"
        Port "phy-br-eth2"
            Interface "phy-br-eth2"
        Port "eth2"
            Interface "eth2"
        Port "br-eth2"
            Interface "br-eth2"
                type: internal
    ovs_version: "1.11.0"

libvirt is running on the computer node, no logs in log file...

I'm trying to do the use case "Provider router with private networks" of the guide. 
On the networker:
 - eth1 is connected to external network
 - eth0 is the "management network"
 - eth2 is the "data network"
On the computer:
 - eth0 is the "management network"
 - eth1 is the 'data network"

Thanks again
Anne-Claire

>>   - nova-scheduler sends a message through rabbitmq with routing key

>> compute.computer but I have no idea who consumes it.
>> There is no error in the different logs and there is no log at all for 
>> neutron services on networker node nor for nova-compute on computer node.

>> Can anyone tell me what is the problem?
