taturiello e7f071b49f Remove no_wait ovs flag from vmw_nsx 3rd party lib 
The no_wait flag can trigger a race conditon with ip addr flush
if the public bridge is not yet up. Due to this race condition
the local route for the external subnet might not be added.

The patch also renames br-ex to $PUBLIC_BRIDGE in some places

Some Neutron plugins require third party programs to function. The files under the directory, lib/neutron_thirdparty/, will be used when their service are enabled. Third party program specific configuration variables should be in this file.

  • filename: <third_party>
    • The corresponding file name should be same to service name, <third_party>.

functions

lib/neutron calls the following functions when the <third_party> is enabled

functions to be implemented

  • configure_<third_party>: set config files, create data dirs, etc e.g. sudo python setup.py deploy iniset $XXXX_CONF...

  • init_<third_party>: initialize databases, etc

  • install_<third_party>: collect source and prepare e.g. git clone xxx

  • start_<third_party>: start running processes, including screen if USE_SCREEN=True e.g. run_process XXXX "$XXXX_DIR/bin/XXXX-bin"

  • stop_<third_party>: stop running processes (non-screen) e.g. stop_process XXXX

  • check_<third_party>: verify that the integration between neutron server and third-party components is sane
