<p>i am setting up a Kubernetes-Cluser and can't get the weave network up properly. </p>

<p>I have 3 nodes: rowlf (master), rizzo and fozzie. The pods are looking fine: </p>

<pre><code>NAMESPACE     NAME                                READY     STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE

</code></pre>

<p>But weave status showing up failures:</p>

<pre><code>$ kubectl exec -n kube-system weave-net-nsp22 -c weave -- /home/weave/weave --local status

</code></pre>

<p>First I do not undestand why the connection is marked as failed. Second in the logs i found these two lines: </p>

</code></pre>

<p>The second misunderstood thing is the "peer names collision" error. Is this normal?</p>

<p>This is the log from "rizzo"</p>

<p>I ask, because i reinstall everything from scratch the fourth time by now and every time I have some trouble to connect from traefik to a pod on another host. I blame the network, because this does not look health. Can you please tell me if the setup is correct so far. Are the errors normal or do I have to care about them? And finally: how do I request for help and what information do I have to provide to make it some people like you easy to help me out of this frustrating position? </p>

<p>This is my version:</p>

<p>Thank you. </p>

<p>++++ UPDATE ++++
I reset the machine-id like it is mentiond in here: <a href="https://github.com/weaveworks/weave/issues/2767" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/weaveworks/weave/issues/2767</a> But this cause a constantly reboot of my machines!</p>

<pre><code>kernel:[ 2257.674153] Internal error: Oops: 80000007 [#1] SMP ARM
</code></pre>

<p>Finally I found the solution here: <a href="https://github.com/weaveworks/weave/issues/3314" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/weaveworks/weave/issues/3314</a> 
We have to disable fastDP!</p>
