Description Flavio Piccioni 2022-11-22 16:08:02 UTC
Description of problem:
Customer who updated from 16.1.x to 16.2.3 is facing a problem for pre-existing octavia's LB (amphora driver).
Both vms (lb clients) and lb are using an external vlan network

Basically, after the upgrade to 16.2.3, customer founds that clients were not able to reach existing lbs vip as the arp table was point to the vip's port mac address instead of the master's amphora vrrp port hw addr. Failovering the loadbalancer is useful to temporary fix the issue, but after a while the issue comes back.

As i wrote all is running on top of a provider network, and virtual machines outside openstack connected to the same network never faced the issue.

New Loadbalancers created after the upgrade seems working as expected. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Openstack 16.2.3 OVN with DVR

How reproducible:
failover a lb and wait

Steps to Reproduce:
1. failover a lb, vms will start reaching out vip correctly
2. wait some time
3. clients will not be able anymore to reach the vip, as the arp table will be populated with the vip's port hw address

Actual results:
openstack vms arp table is pupulated with vip port's mac addr.

Expected results:
openstack vms arp table to be pupulated with master amphora vrrp port's mac addr.
