Natarajan,

what all does the allinone setup do besides stack and start odl? Meaning does it try to create any bridges or networks?

could you modify the allinone to add a 60s or 90s sleep in between when the ovsdb node manager is set and when odl starts? Or switch from all in one to external? I think what is happening is that odl is starting but it takes a while to get to a resting state. netvirt is the last service to run since it depends on neutron, openflowplugin and the southbound. Those can take a long time to start and then when netvirt finally starts it can take another 30s or so to start. So during that time if the stack is trying to connect to odl there can be issues.

Thanks, Sam
