MAC Address is already in use; several of times before Nic/MAC is acceppetd
Hi Guys, Since the upgrade to 4.1 I have the issue that every nic I add I get a several of times: MAC Address xx:xx:xx:xx:xx is already in use. I have added an extra pool and this issue still exists. Anyone a clue why this happens ? Thanks, Matt
Dear Matt, I have CC'ed Martin and Yevgeni, they might be able to help out. Could you find a way to provide Engine logs to us so it is easier to debug this? Can you also give a little more detail? For example, what are the MAC addresses that are claimed to be in use? What is the MAC address range of the default and extra MAC pool you created (do you think the error messages are valid, or do they seem wrong)? If you need assistance finding out about the default MAC pool range, please reply to this thread, I think I might be able to show you a REST API command to query the default MAC pool details.

Hi, you're the second (if I'm counting correctly) person able to reproduce this. So far we do not know what is causing this, and all tests we made so far cannot reproduce this. Previous unlucky user had problem, that he had less available macs in MAC pool, than actual nics in system. This does not answer the question how he was able to reach this situation, but he was able to greatly reduce this issue via making MAC pool bigger. You said, that you added extra pool. Which pool are you referring to? MAC pool? VM pool? Please describe your environment and ideally provide us with logs. How many VMs do you have in each VM pool? How many vm_interfaces do you have in your system in total? How many MAC pools do you have in your system and what is its configuration? thanks, Martin.
