If the VM is actually up, is the DHCP server capable of handing out an

Tashi seems to think the instance is up but it never seems to have
gotten an IP address. After this kind of thing happens, I can
subsequently create a new VM that gets a good IP address, so the DHCP
server is definitely working.
But is the actual VM running correctly? :)
Have you looked at what is on console?
Are you suggesting that the DHCP server might get overloaded, not
respond, and that Tashi doesn't retry the request?
That is a failure possibility. DHCP and TFTP sometimes get overloaded.
Are you running CM, NM and DHCP on the same machine? I can come over and
take a look at what's going on.
