ISSUE TYPE
- Bug Report
COMPONENT NAME
Tungsten Fabric
CLOUDSTACK VERSION
CloudStack 4.18/ 4.18.1 nightly builds
CONFIGURATION
Advanced zone with Tungsten fabric deployed with Tungsten as LB provider, default Tungsten fabric offering would do.
OS / ENVIRONMENT

SUMMARY
When configuring Load Balancing with Tungsten Fabric based zone although the load balancer configuration is applied successfully it doesn't work at times. The connectivity fails from the client. The service instance appears to be configured as per the Tungsten Fabric controller.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In a Tungsten fabric integrated zone created a guest network using the offering _DefaultTungstenFarbicNetworkOffering_
2. Deploy a VM in the above network.
3. Acquire a new public IP in the guest network and configure the load balancing rule and firewall to allow the same.
4. Try connecting to the public IP:port using telnet or desired client.
5. If the above it working, remove the LB rule and add the same rule again or acquire a new public IP and repeat the same.
EXPECTED RESULTS
The load balancer should be configured on Tungsten Fabric to allow connectivity
ACTUAL RESULTS
Although the load balancer configuration seems to be applied at the Tungsten Fabric by the CloudStack the connectivity is not possible intermittently.
