I'm trying to deploy a test environment using RDO packstack. I have 3 nodes, node1 is the controller, node2 is for network and compute, node3 is only for compute. I want to setup open vSwitch based self-service networks. Each node has 2 network interfaces, eno1 is for management interface and eno2 is for provider. I don't have the third network interfaces, so I reuse eno1 as overlay.

Packstack finished installation with success.

I created the first instance and this instance was located at node2 and instance1 has no network issue. Then I create the second instance and this instance was located at node3, and this instance cannot get IP from DHCP server.

Would you please give me some hints to debug this issue?

I checked br-tun on node2 and node3, link state of br-tun is LINK-DOWN. Is it the reason?
