DVR is enabled and there is more than one physical bridge mapping, and the neutron server was not available when the ovs agents were started.

If there is more than one node running the ovs agent in this state, then there will be a network loop and packets can multiple quickly and overwhelm the network. We saw ~1 million packets/sec. I think because the neutron server is not available, the get_dvr_mac_address rpc is blocked and the required drops are not installed: https://github.com/openstack/neutron/blob/master/neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/openvswitch/agent/ovs_dvr_neutron_agent.py#L138 https://github.com/openstack/neutron/blob/5999716cfc4a00ac426e016eabbb51247ba0b190/neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/openvswitch/agent/ovs_dvr_neutron_agent.py#L230-L234 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/cloud-archive/+bug/1887148/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team Post to : yahoo-eng-team@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yahoo-eng-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
