Public bug reported:

On 2015-05-28, our Landscape auto-upgraded packages on two of our
OpenStack clouds.  On both clouds, but only on some compute nodes, the
upgrade of openvswitch-switch and corresponding downtime of
ovs-vswitchd appears to have triggered some sort of race condition
within neutron-plugin-openvswitch-agent leaving it in a broken state;
any new instances come up with non-functional network but pre-existing
instances appear unaffected.  Restarting n-p-ovs-agent on the affected
compute nodes is sufficient to work around the problem.

The packages Landscape upgraded (from /var/log/apt/history.log):

[-] Error received from ovsdb monitor: ovsdb-client:

Looking at a stuck instances, all the right tunnels and bridges and
what not appear to be there:

root@vector:~# ip l l | grep c-3b

root@vector:~# ovs-vsctl list-ports br-int | grep c-3b

But I can't ping the unit from within the qrouter-${id} namespace on
the neutron gateway.  If I tcpdump the {q,t}*c-3b interfaces, I don't
see any traffic.
