Hi Marnus, I experienced the exact same symptom (no fixed IP given to instance). Is it possible that you previously deleted and recreated your network with networks that overlap or match the old network? In my case the problem was related to this bug:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/754900 In this bug, instances are getting fixed IPs but from a previously deleted pool. Another bug (marked as a dupe of the above) describes this situation a little better (no IP given to instance): https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/+bug/812573 One way to confirm if deleting and recreating the network is the problem is to tail -f /var/log/nova/nova-network.log while starting and stopping an instance on that node. When I was seeing this problem, nothing would show up in nova-network.log during launch, but when I terminated the instance, nova-network.log would show an error saying essentially that "network 2 could not be found". However we were on network #5 by then. So clearly something was off in nova db. There is likely a better way to fix this than what I did (drop and recreate nova db) but it was the simplest fix given that this was a brand new installation. There is almost certainly a "better" way to fix it by manually hacking nova db. Hope this helps, Mark On 07/03/2012 11:22 PM, Marnus van Niekerk wrote: > I installed a minimal cloud image (cirros) and found that it had no > network configures after booting.
