Hi, Anonymous fellow ;)
Let’s see if I can help you a little bit. I am checking the ACS 4.9 source
code.
The error is thrown at line 896 of class
“com.cloud.hypervisor.kvm.resource.LibvirtComputingResource”.
The condition that causes the error is “_pifs.get("private") == null”.
“_pifs” if a map. The key “private” is added to the map at line 1124, if
condition “_guestBridgeName != null && bridge.equals(_guestBridgeName)” is
met.
The variable “_guestBridgeName” is a String that can receive the value of
“guest.network.device” parameter or “_privBridgeName” variable. This
process happens at lines 752-755. The process of assigning a value to
“_privBridgeName” happens at lines 747-750. The default value for
“_privBridgeName” is “cloudbr1”. The default can be overridden by
“private.network.device” parameter.
Having detailed the parameter. Let's see how ACS gets the “bridge” value.
It gets that value from code at line 1113 “cmdout.split("%")”. The variable
“cmdout” contains the output of the following OS command: “ovs-vsctl
list-br | sed '{:q;N;s/\\n/%/g;t q}'”.
Can you run the command and check its output?
