Public bug reported: When creating an instance using the Ironic driver using routed provider networks, Nova creates a port with `ip_allocation` set to `deferred`. This will let Neutron add an IP address to the interface once it's bound to a host to ensure that it's part of the right segment.
When using this in combination with ConfigDrive, you end up with a broken ConfigDrive with no links due to the fact that you have a `network_info` on create that looks like this: ``` [ { "id": "2f28d85a-c215-4c73-91cd-c7d965254711", "address": "fa:16:3e:85:b4:60", "network": { "id": "8c178449-cc1f-4f02-8a58-09f09a975b59", "bridge": null, "label": "baremetal", "subnets": [], "meta": { "injected": false, "tenant_id": "14f0af4a69ea4148b7b18939ae2ebcca", "mtu": 1500, "physical_network": "external-rack001", "tunneled": false } }, "type": "unbound", "details": {}, "devname": "tap2f28d85a-c2", "ovs_interfaceid": null, "qbh_params": null, "qbg_params": null, "active": false, "vnic_type": "normal", "profile": {}, "preserve_on_delete": false, "delegate_create": true, "meta": {} } ] ``` This `network_info` eventually refreshes later to be the correct value, however, since that is what is used in spawn time, it's also what is used in deploy time to geneate the config drive and never updated, meaning that you end up with no correct network_data.json if you're using ironic + routed provider networks. ** Affects: nova Importance: Undecided Assignee: Mohammed Naser (mnaser) Status: New ** Changed in: nova Assignee: (unassigned) => Mohammed Naser (mnaser) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Yahoo!
