Re: [ovirt-users] oVirt 4 and Neutron

Marcin, I installed the OVN-Central on a dedicated VM that lives on the ovirtmgmt network, I also installed the OVN-Provider on this same instance. I then installed the OVN-Controllers on all 3 of my oVirt Nodes, with the OVN provider driver, and configured the vdsm ovn-controller {central-ip} {ovirt-node-ip} on each of the boxes. It appears to be running but what I am noticing is that the ovs-vswitchd process is pegged at 100% on all the oVirt nodes. So for instance from oVirt Node 3 (IP 75) the ovs-vsctl shows the IPs for the other 2 nodes in it's configuration. It seems to be that way across all 3 nodes, they know about the other nodes in the cluster. I was able to create a network inside of oVIRT using the external provider. After i create a subnet inside oVirt I do get an error at the top but seems to be ok? [image: Inline image 2] (Output from Node3 IP 75, of: ovs-vsctl show) 61af799c-a621-445e-8183-23dcb38ea3cc Bridge br-int fail_mode: secure Port "ovn-c0dc09-0" Interface "ovn-c0dc09-0" type: geneve options: {csum="true", key=flow, remote_ip="172.10.10.73"} Port "ovn-456949-0" Interface "ovn-456949-0" type: geneve options: {csum="true", key=flow, remote_ip="172.10.10.74"} Port br-int Interface br-int type: internal ovs_version: "2.6.90" Example where the (ovs-vswitchd) is running at 100% on all 3 oVirt Nodes.

Am I missing something on this? Thanks very much for your help.
