Are you sure? did you tried bringing it down?

AFAIU, OVN is already providing distributed routing since 2.6: if the node
where you have the oVirt OVN provider and the OVN controller with
northbound and southbound DB is down you cannot edit logical networks but
the existing flows should still be there.
