network DHCP agent ports status is DOWN in multi network creation simultaneously

How many schelduled networks/ports on your running agents? How many neutron RPC workers do you have? This looks like the resource scale issue for L2 agent or DHCP agent. If your cloud has no customized code, you can upgrade to Xena to use distributed DHCP. And then you can stop dhcp agents.

we currently have 140 networks In our cluster, we are going to create 5 networks with 3 DHCP ports, also we have 16 rpc_workers, we haven't set any limitation for our agents.

Hello Shahab:

The DHCP port must be created by the DHCP agent and then bound by OVS (if you are using OVS backend). You should see something like this in the Neutron server:
  Provisioning complete for port 4fa9d6bd-ef07-4e9b-badb-fabcd9572088 triggered by entity DHCP.
  Provisioning complete for port 4fa9d6bd-ef07-4e9b-badb-fabcd9572088 triggered by entity L2.

This is the message you'll see in the DHCP agent:
  DHCP configuration for ports {'4fa9d6bd-ef07-4e9b-badb-fabcd9572088'} is completed

And this in the OVS agent:
  Setting status for 4fa9d6bd-ef07-4e9b-badb-fabcd9572088 to UP

Please, try to reproduce the error with the DHCP agent, OVS agent and Neutron server in debug mode, post the logs and the network, subnets and DHCP ports IDs. That will help us to debug this issue.

Regards.

Dear Rodolfo

we faced this issue after upgrade from "ussuri" to "victoria".
about logs you mentioned above, we compare a faulty network with healthy network logs and found faulty network receives one less update.
finally, we have resolved this issue by disabling ipv6 in our network hosts as we don't use IPv6 in our setup, but we can't find any relation between main issue and the solution.
do you have any opinion about this resolution

best regards
