Hi Steven and Emilien,
I need your advice on how to proceed with the fix in
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/521632/.
The issue in question is that code in puppet-neutron for the Nexus switch,
performs a ping test to see if all the Nexus switches specified in the
configuration are actually reachable.
After that it performs a ssh-keyscan and adds the list of Nexus switches to the
list on known hosts on the Controllers.
Code can be viewed here:
https://github.com/openstack/puppet-neutron/blob/master/manifests/plugins/ml2/cisco/nexus_creds.pp
(starting from line #104)
I spoke to Emilien about this during the Sydney summit.
Since then I have tried a bunch of different ways to solve this problem and I
am trying to figure out the best way to proceed:
1. Adding retry login around the ping test:
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/521632/2
2. Changing the order in which Neutron ML2 plugins/services were
initialized in https://review.openstack.org/#/c/521632/8 (Failed gate checks)
3. I also tried to remove a dependency between the ping test and the
ssh-keyscan steps. (code in https://review.openstack.org/#/c/521632/7)
4. Finally, in the latest version of the fix I completely removed the
ping test and ssh-keyscan steps to make progress.
(https://review.openstack.org/#/c/521632/)
Although, the ping test and ssh-keyscan are not essential for the functioning
of the Nexus driver, I would like to find a way to keep this code.
Please let me know what would be the best way to proceed.
Thanks,
Sandhya
