Public bug reported: Reported at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2187650
During a scalability test it was noted that a few VMs where having issues being pinged (2 out of ~5000 VMs in the test conducted). After some investigation it was found that the VMs in question did not receive a DHCP lease: udhcpc: no lease, failing FAIL checking http://169.254.169.254/2009-04-04/instance-id failed 1/20: up 181.90. request failed And the ovnmeta- namespaces for the networks that the VMs was booting from were missing. Looking into the ovn-metadata-agent.log: 2023-04-18 06:56:09.864 353474 DEBUG neutron.agent.ovn.metadata.agent [-] There is no metadata port for network 9029c393-5c40-4bf2-beec-27413417eafa or it has no MAC or IP addresses configured, tearing the namespace down if needed _get_provision_params /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/neutron/agent/ovn/metadata/agent.py:495 Apparently, when the system is under stress (scalability tests) there are some edge cases where the metadata port information has not yet being propagated by OVN to the Southbound database and when the PortBindingChassisEvent event is being handled and try to find either the metadata port of the IP information on it (which is updated by ML2/OVN during subnet creation) it can not be found and fails silently with the error shown above. Note that, running the same tests but with less concurrency did not trigger this issue. So only happens when the system is overloaded. ** Affects: neutron Importance: High Assignee: Lucas Alvares Gomes (lucasagomes) Status: Triaged ** Tags: ovn -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
