@mriedem The issue is in nova/virt/vmwareapi/virt.py. This is where the
network type is being set for the instance.
** Description changed:
- For NSX-mh, network type is being set to opaque, but that does not
- appear to be valid.
-
+ When nova-vmware is used as compute with NSX-mh neutron plugin, network
+ type for launch OpenStack instance is being set to opaque, but that is
+ not valid network type for the NSX vswitch. It should be nsx.network. As
+ a result, instance is launched and remains disconnected.
If trying to create an NSX vswitch on ESXi, it shows opaque as invalid.
~ # nsxcli network/add br-int2 br-int2 opaque manual
Invalid opaque network type
Valid types are nsx.network and nsx-bridge.network
nsx-appctl: nsxd: server returned an error
- ~ #
-
+ ~ #
This applies to both ESXi 5.5 and 6.0
** Summary changed:
- NSX-mh: Invalid opaque network type
+ nova-vmware with NSX-mh neutron plugin: instance not connected to network
because network type set opaque which is invalid on ESXi
** Changed in: nova
Status: Invalid => New
