Description Franck Baudin 2016-12-21 17:06:01 UTC
Description of problem:

RHOSP10 supports VxLAN, but this is not documented: to be documented.

Comment 1 Vijay Chundury 2017-01-06 10:32:54 UTC
With these changes we got pings across vm's over Vxlan tunnel.

(1) Ping test failed on Tenant network during deployment -
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1401471
Since the OVS is not started with DPDK_OPTIONS at the time of
AllNodesValidationStep, but done later in puppet at Step4, it is
failing for PING test. We have a workaround to disable the ping test
for the deploy to be successful. This is being discussed upstream as tracked by this bug-id.

(2) Compute node has to be restarted after the DPDK VxLAN deployment -
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1404567
We are working with the OVS team to figure out the issue. As of now a
restart after deployment is working (manually).

Vijay.

The THT templates for deploying DPDK on VxLAN using Tenant Network is available @https://github.com/krsacme/tht-dpdk/tree/0e8d70edf489764ac7fa242092d109e21fc37972

I think this has been completed. Assigning to Sandra to confirm and close.
