Neutron Open Virtual Network (OVN) high CPU usageOVN daemons (e.g., ovn-controller) are stuck in a tight poll loop, driving CPU to 100 %. Logs show “Dropped … due to excessive rate” or “Unreasonably long … poll interval,” slowing port-binding and network traffic.Networking ProblemsneutronKnown ProblemOvnPublic

Neutron Open Virtual Network (OVN) and Virtual Interface (VIF) allows port binding to dead agents, causing VIF plug timeoutsIn OpenStack deployments using Neutron with the OVN ML2 driver, ports could be bound to agents that were not alive. This behavior led to virtual machines experiencing network interface plug timeouts during provisioning, as the port binding would not complete successfully.Networking ProblemsneutronNeutronOvnTimeoutNetworkingOpenstackKnown IssuePublic

Neutron Open Virtual Network (OVN) fails to bind logical switch due to race condition during load balancer creationDuring load balancer creation or other operations involving logical router and logical switch associations, Neutron OVN may raise a `RowNotFound` exception when attempting to reference a logical switch that has just been deleted. This leads to a port binding failure and a rollback of the affected operation.Networking ProblemsneutronNeutronOvnOpenstackLoad BalancerLogical SwitchOvsdbKnown IssuePublic
