Issue:
Deleting and Creating a Deployment Spec (DS) using Distributed Appliance (DA) with a Cirros image, may create 2 images.
Environment: Newton Openstack
Work around:
Delete the DA and then re-create the DA and DS.
Add the image properties on the new image for accessing Console of Cirros.
openstack image set --property hw_vif_model=virtio --property hw_disk_bus=ide (image-name or id)
Issue:
Creating a Deployment Specification (DS) with the same name, after a delete, fails if flavor, image, or Openstack Security Group with the same DS instance name already exists
Environment: Newton Openstack
Work around:
Delete the Image, Openstack Security Group (SG) and flavor from Newton Openstack. Then you will be able to create the new DS
OR
Delete the Distributed applicance (DA) and re-create the DA. Deleting the DA deletes the image, Openstack SG, and the flavor. Now creating the DS will succeed.
Issue:
Nuage: Creating a Security Group (SG) with no (Virtual Machines) VMs as SG members throws an error - 'A domain was not found for tenant and Security Group'. The empty Security Group cannot be deleted.
Work around:
Force Delete the Security Group. Create another SG with at least one VM as a Security Group Member.
Issue:
Nuage: Deleting a binded Security Group (SG) throws an error 'NoSuchElementException'
Work around:
Force delete the binded SG and clean up the objects (Un-assign and Delete corresponding Policy Groups) on Nuage GUI also
Issue:
Currently we are not identifying the best Distributed Appliance Instance (DAI) to be removed, (i.e.: defective one or least loaded) when the Deployment Specification (DS) count is reduced.
Detailed explanation:
Create a DS with Deployment Count 2 - If you don't have enough resources in your Openstack environment and in case that the result will have one working appliance and one not working appliance (cause the vm instance cannot start)
In such a case adjusting the Deployment Count to 1 - not guaranteed that the non working appliance will be deleted. Hence in some cases the working appliance will be deleted and the non working appliance will stay.
Work around:
Delete the DS and create a new DS with Deployment Count 1
Issue:
ISM - status is always displayed as INSTALL_WAIT on the Plugins page.
Note - No functionality impacted by this failure.
Issue:
Security Group (SG) Bind - SG (VM) Sync not working appropriately (passes when it should have failed) after deleting Inspection interface from the router on Openstack
Work around:
Unbind the SG, Bind again. Now the Job will FAIL as expected
Issue:
Security Group (SG) Bind - SG Sync for 'Network' not working appropriately (passes when it should have failed) after deleting Inspection interface from the router on Openstack
Work around:

Issue:
The 'status' field on 'Appliance Instance Status' page is not visible completely and needs to be scrolled to see the whole wording - The security manager for this appliance instance does not provide appliance status.
Issue:
For ISM Distributed Appliance Instance (DAI), Discovered and Inspection Ready fields blank out periodically. Reappear on refresh after clicking on 'Appliance Instances' and disappear again after sometime
Work around:
Click on Appliance Instance Status button, where it will have values N/A or hard-coded values ‘true’ for Discovered and Inspection Ready fields. Then refresh the DAI page. The correct values will appear now.
NOTE – No functionality impacted
Issue:
Appliance Instance Status not populated with accurate values for certain fields like - Manager IP, DPA PID, DPA Info. Some fields are blank whereas others display ‘null’.
Note – No functionality impacted.
Issue:
