Dear Stavros,

We also use XS 6.5 with bonding(active-backup) and VLANs, but this discussion is about PVLANs. It is a bit different isolation method that should also work for some CS distributions.

Regards,

Vadim.

Hi Vadim,

We use Xenserver 6.5 with bonding interfaces (LACP) and VLANs on top of them at our compute nodes. At Head nodes we use Cloudstack 4.5.2 with bonds and VLANS. Everything works fine until now, however documentation on VLANs is lucking on both Cloudstack and Xenserver.

Cheers
Stavros

Hi All,

Will the CS 4.5 + XEN 6.5 using bond and pvlan will work on the upcoming
4.5.3.

Thanks,

Hi Vadim,

Thanks for your reply. For the 4.6 release we changed the way we work.
Instead of branching off early and making a release branch stable, we
decided to stabilise master. We got many complaints that master didn't
compile at times or functionality wasn't tested before it entered master. Making master stable was quite some work, even harder than making a release branch stable. I can imagine that process gives you the impression of "many
problems".

In reality, this should bring more stable releases. 4.7 will be built on top of 4.6, so if 4.6 is good, 4.7 will be better (and so on). In the past, 4.5 was not built on top of 4.4 (so you saw problems coming back and had to
wait until a .1 or .2 release, indeed).

4.6.0 was released after just two RC voting rounds, while previous
releases needed more of them. That says something about the quality IMHO.

This is not so related to the question that was asked but I wanted to be sure there weren't any "problems" in 4.6 that I didn't know about (so they
could be addressed). It's perfectly fine not to upgrade yet. But please
don't give people the impression there are "many problems" while you cannot
name them.

In the mean while we work on 4.6.1 and 4.7.0 and hopefully some day you'll
have a smooth upgrade and enjoy the new features.

If you need any help with upgrading, please drop us a line on the dev list.

Regards,
Remi

Dear Remi,

My apologize to mislead Audrey with notations - problem were
with VPC, not VR. Voting process for 4.6 release was also very
difficult. Of course official release will be stabilized, but from user
perspective I will say the same to Aundery - 4.6 will not solve his
problem with OVS plugin and probably will bring more problems than
4.5.2. May be this is just fear before release, but this is my personal
fear - I will wait until 4.6.1 definitely. My 4.5.2 VPC works too good
to take a risk of immediate update :)

Hi Vadim,

What VR problems do you refer to in ACS 4.6?

Dear Audrey,

OVS plugin, as I remember, last seen OK before CS 4.4.0. I have created
bug report in JIRA
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-7446 [1] [1 [1]]. Since 4.5.1
this
plugin is not in the list anymore. The reason, I guess, is outdated
code
that is not compatible with this release. CS 4.6 version has a lot of
problems with VR, so I would not recommend you to install it. Don't
know
if OVS is back there. I doubt.

I think you may find OVS plugin at CS source tree, but whether you want
to update it? Is PVLAN so important for you?

Vadim.

Hi Vadim, thanks for your help.

After reading your message I remembered of the plugin area of CS and
yes, the OVS plugin is missing. So I ask: Why is it missing? I had seen
it before (CS 4.5.1 probably) and using XEN 6.5 was able to configure
PVLAN.

Is it possible to instal the OVS plugin? Where can I find it?

Does CS 4.6 has the plugin out-of-the-box?

Audrey

Hello Audrey,

Look at this document:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/PVLAN+for+isolation+within+a+VLAN [2]

[2]
[1 [1]]
XenServer uses OVS and CS have OVS pluging to work with. OVS plugin
for cloudstack hasn't been updated for a long time as I know. At my CS
4.5.2 this plugin is missing, though in older versions of CS it was
present. I think this functionality does not work for XenServer 6.5.
Use
VLANs - it is more reliable.

Vadim.

Hello everybody!

I installed CS 4.5.2 and I'm using XEN 6.5. There is one NIC dedicated
for Public traffic, one for MGMT + Secondary Storage, one for Primary
Storage and a bond configured for the Guest traffic. Zone is installed
as Advanced without Security Groups.

When I add a Guest Network with PVLAN, the network is created, but
when
I try to create a new instance it does not start. I realized that the
virtual router also does not start. Adding a Guest Network without
PVLAN works as expected.

Does anyone have an idea about it?

Looking into the log I could find the information below:
