> Nuage VSP regression fails in NetworksWithCleanup test since introduction of fix for CLOUDSTACK-9114 in ACS 4.11&master
> In Nuage Networks QA regression cycle, cloudstackExpress is failing for master & 4.11 in expressrestartNetworksWithCleanup test.
>  The error is Unable to create a deployment.
>  Issue is caused by fixing https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-9114
>   
>  Reason is that for non-redundant routers, a strategy was implemented where first a new VR is deployed, then old VR is powered-off/destroyed, and the new VR is again re-programmed. With this strategy, two identical VRs may be up for a brief moment (few seconds) where both can serve traffic, however the new VR performs arp-ping on its interfaces to update neighbours. After the old VR is removed, the new VR is re-programmed which among many things performs another arpping. The theoretical downtime is therefore limited by the arp-cache refresh which can be up to 30 seconds. In my experiments, against various VMware, KVM and XenServer versions I found that the downtime was indeed less than 30s, usually between 5-20 seconds. Compared to older ACS versions, especially in cases where VRs deployment require full volume copy (like in VMware) a 10x-12x improvement was seen.BUT NUAGE PLUGIN FAILS AS IP ADDRESS IS ALREADY IN USE.
