I think its sufficient to say OVS is a 'real' modern switch while plain
ol' linux bridge is not (so much any more). Of curse, maybe implementing
other things like macvtap and / or SR-IOV achieves just the same thing
(at least for me, as I then mange vlans/trunks and QoS, Spanning Tree
ect. on my switches).
I know you can point on OpenStack integration because you get those
features for 'free' (see Ceph). But what about users like me who do not
wish / can / should implement the whole OpenStack but rather want to run
'plain' oVirt?
I think this might not be a desirable way to add / modernize features as
it creates a huge overhead (at least in my use case, medium business. I
did this once for Glance 'just' to get a way to more easily handle
import / export of image files, now I need to implement Neutron 'just'
to get OVS?).
Don't get me wrong - OpenStack integration is a wonderful thing witch
leaves room for expansion - later on.
Thanks!
Hi Daniel,
We did a lot of work in VDSM to make it more pluggable. part of it was
to extract the LB specific implementation to a configurator which
enables adding support to OVS. Take a look at -
http://www.ovirt.org/Feature/NetworkReloaded#Network_configurators
We did not implement the OVS configurator, but it's an option we should
look into.
It would help if you can specify concrete work that you are doing with
OVS, is it just a general, traditional work or are you using the flows
in OVS, other?
