Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 14.04.4 and SRIOV settings.

As already documented in https://bugs.launchpad.net/mos/+bug/1501738
there is a bug in the default libnl library release installed on Ubuntu
14.04.4

The library release is the 3.2.21-1 and the bug is impacting on the
maximum VFs number that can be enabled (up to 30) even if the PF
supports up to 63 VFs in an Openstack SRIOV configuration

The workaround is to install a newer library release, the 3.2.24-2:

wget 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libnl-3-200_3.2.24-2_amd64.deb
wget 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libnl-genl-3-200_3.2.24-2_amd64.deb
wget 
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/libnl-route-3-200_3.2.24-2_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libnl-3-200_3.2.24-2_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libnl-genl-3-200_3.2.24-2_amd64.deb
dpkg -i libnl-route-3-200_3.2.24-2_amd64.deb
