Sunstone error creating new Virt Network ovs-switch VXLAN auto VLAN & auto Outer ID

Community Support GUI - Sunstone

HI, I’m been using minione for an evaluation of our required use-case for the last month or so. Its going very well. Nice product! I’ve hit an issue that I believe is a regression/bug in the new Sunstone Web front-end (port 2616). Is this the best place to report bugs?

I’m using release v6.10.0

I attended the live Operations train sessions today and learned the original front-end is running on port 9869 & w/minione its on 80.

This was useful to determine the following is working on previous Web UI and via the CLI, but not on latest WebUI.

Create a new virtual network for open-vswitch VXLAN and attempt to configure both “Automatic VLAN ID” and “Automatic Outer VLAN ID” it will give the following error at the Web UI:

[one.vn.allocate] OUTER_VLAN_ID (or AUTOMATIC) is mandatory for driver ovswitch_vxlan

I can not find any way to configure Auto for both without getting this error.
If you give a fixed value for 1 or the other setting, then it works with Auto on the other. However now there is a fixed value and I’d rather let the system manage both values.

It works fine doing the same setting on older port 80 Web UI. Auto/Auto for both.
Or workaround using the CLI as:

oneadmin@opennebular-1:~$ onevnet create ./vxlan.conf --cluster onprem-cluster-laas-1a
ID: 22
oneadmin@opennebular-1:~$ cat  ./vxlan.conf
NAME    = "laas-datalink-vxlan"
VN_MAD  = "vxlan"
PHYDEV  = "enp94s0f1"
AUTOMATIC_VLAN_ID = "YES"
AUTOMATIC_OUTER_VLAN_ID = "YES"
oneadmin@opennebular-1:~$

Also I increased to debug level 5 on /etc/one/oned.conf & fireedge.conf.
Increased truncate_max_length: 1000 on fireedge to see full log lines.

Using the new WebUI front-end (port 2616) I see the following logs:

One item I just noticed (I’m still learning…). I didn’t configure the creation of new network via CLI properly. I gave vxlan and not ovswitch_vxlan as type (VN_MAD).

This doesn’t change the WebUI regression as its still broken, but wanted to clarify the proper workaround on cli is:

oneadmin@opennebular-1:~$ onevnet create ./ovswitch-vxlan.conf  --cluster onprem-cluster-laas-1a
ID: 24
oneadmin@opennebular-1:~$ cat ./ovswitch-vxlan.conf
NAME    = "laas-datalink-ovsvxlan"
VN_MAD  = "ovswitch_vxlan"
PHYDEV  = "enp94s0f1"
AUTOMATIC_VLAN_ID = "YES"
AUTOMATIC_OUTER_VLAN_ID = "YES"
oneadmin@opennebular-1:~$

My test on old WebuI (port 80) was indeed on open-vswitch vxlan. (I double checked). It works there as well.
