I ran into some similar issues with the _enable_hairpin() call. The call is 
allowed to fail silently and (in my case) was failing. I couldn't for the life 
of me figure out why, though, and since I'm really not a networking person I 
didn't trace it along too far.

Just thought I'd share my similar pain.

taken

Thank you for your support.

I checked the file  nova/virt/libvirt/connection.py, the sentence  
self._enable_hairpin(instance) is already added to the function  _hard_reboot().
It looks like there are some difference between taking snapshot and reboot 
instance. I tried to figure out how to fix this bug but failed.

It will be much appreciated if anyone can give some hints.

Thanks,
Sam

It might be because there's a missing _enable_hairpin() call in the reboot()
function.  Try something like this...

nova/virt/libvirt/connection.py, _hard_reboot():

             self._create_new_domain(xml)
+            self._enable_hairpin(instance)
             self.firewall_driver.apply_instance_filter(instance, network_info)

At least that's what I remember doing myself recently when testing after a
reboot, don't know about snapshot.

Folsom has changed enough that something different would need to be done there.
