How will Cloudstack management be able to function across datacenters without a gateway?
I had a similar issue where I was inclined to do something similar, but instead I further separated the network because I realized that the one interface that must have a gateway is the management. My example was that I had my Cloudstack Management my Cloudstack-Storage subnets contained in the same vlan-id and in the same subnet. Ex: Both vlan id 1500 with a 172.16.16/20 172.16.25/20 was for cloudstack management 172.16.28/20 was for cloudstack storage While it worked in the confines of the cloudstack rules to stand up the zone, it broke because the servers would mix up which NIC to source the traffic from which broke my secondary storage and snapshots. So I would end up traffic going different ways. To fix, I stood up separate vlan and subnet for storage traffic. -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Landreth [mailto:crackerjackm...@gmail.com] Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2012 3:57 PM To: cloudstack-dev@incubator.apache.org Subject: [xenserver6 networking] dual IP routes not supported for host machine Emailing this to the list as per the IRC conversation. I was having issues two nics and the default route which wasn't used for cloudstack management. I am using advanced networking so this "patch" works for me. I don't know exactly why the conditional is in there or even why the gateway is needed, but removing it has caused no ill effects so far in my testing.
