Can I use the Mellanox Neutron plugin with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Openstack Platform 4?
The Mellanox Neutron plugin has been tested and certified with Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Enterprise Platform 4. This plugin is included in the product, via the openstack-neutron-mellanox package.
One issue has been identified. When the Neutron service with the Mellanox Plugin is started with an empty database, the following error is reported:
neutron-db-check: ERROR: neutron database does not have version information. You must run the "neutron-db-manage stamp" command before starting neutron services.
To workaround this problem, comment out the following line in the /etc/init.d/neutron-server script:
[ -x $dbcheck ] && $dbcheck || exit 6
And invoke
/etc/init.d/neutron-server start
Neutron server will start normally.
This issue has been reported in Mellanox’s OpenStack Troubleshooting document.
