Availability Zones (AZ) distribution
------------------------------------
Both the ``OVNGatewayChanceScheduler`` and the
``OVNGatewayLeastLoadedScheduler`` schedulers have the Availability Zones (AZ)
in consideration. If a router has any AZ defined, the schedulers will select
only those chassis located in the AZs. If no chassis meets this condition, the
``Logical_Router_Port`` will be assigned to the "neutron-ovn-invalid-chassis".
Once the list of candidate ``Chassis`` (depending on the scheduler selected)
is created, this list is reordered to prioritize these ``Chassis`` from
different AZs. That will spread the allocation choices to all AZs; if the
current (and highest) ``Chassis`` binding fails, the next ``Chassis`` in the
list will belong to another AZ.
This improvement was implemented in [3]_.
