Hi Arata, we're using Opscode Chef for these problems. Each new node will configure by chef including all interfaces and IP's. You need just define the available network for your environment in your data bag. Free IP's will find for checking available IP's and used IP's by node.search().
Maybe is that an other approach Cheers Heiko On 16.01.2014 09:41, NOTSU Arata wrote: > Hello, > > I'm trying to add a new configuration option for Neutron OVS agent.
