Hey folks,

Was working on a bug yesterday that occurs when you are using the Neutron 
barclamp with the OVS plugin in GRE mode.

The issue is that when a Nova compute node is rebooted, the Neutron networking 
on the node comes up in a broken state, which causes networking to fail for the 
VMs that the compute node is hosting.

It turns out that this is a known issue with Neutron 
(https://ask.openstack.org/en/question/4809/vm-internal-network-broken-after-compute-restart/).
  Evidently the OVS agent automatically adds entries to the bridge on its way 
up, and this is what causes Neutron networking to fail.  The Neutron developers 
have added a script to clean these entries out during bootup of the node, but 
you must hook execution of this script into your compute nodes manually.  I 
believe the script was added in the 2013.1.2 version of the Ubuntu OpenStack 
packages.

I submitted a fix for this that will be included in our upcoming Mesa 1.6.1 
release, but just thought I would let everyone know in case you run into this 
issue.  The pull request for the fix is: 
https://github.com/crowbar/barclamp-quantum/pull/128

I will also be submitting a pull request to merge this fix into pebbles shortly.


Thanks!
