What Adam said. Might need to disable/reenable LDP in order for the new path to "take effect." We keep having an issue where we'll make administrative changes to OSPF (i.e. link cost) and LDP won't reflect the change (i.e. update the LSP) until we bounce LDP. Haven't done much troubleshooting so I don't know the cause, but if you change the costs and don't see the VPLS taking the right LSP, bounce LDP on at least the far end router.
