I have the same issue. It has to do with every release since bosh 248.
However, dynamic networks with older bosh releases + cf-231/cf-231 work.

This must be a bug.

Task 57 error

For a more detailed error report, run: bosh task 57 --debug

as the ip manged by OpenStack, bosh cannot get the actual ip address of
each vm until vm alive, this lead to the generated job spec doesn't contain
ip address infos
so, must i have to configure network type to manual?​
