BTW, I cannot figure out a way to automatically configure OVS on
Ubuntu
when booting up. it seems /etc/network/interfaces file doesn't know
about OVS.
The syntax is described in
/usr/share/doc/openvswitch-__switch/README.Debian
I'm encoutering the boot process issue, too. The master or
v1.10.0 ovs-vswitchd startup scripts would work because
it scans the interfaces file for allow-ovs and hooks ifup.
The version of ovs in ubuntu is v1.9.0 and the script
does not kick ifup.
I ported the v1.10.0 init script into running ubuntu,
then it starting up the interface in boot looks ok.
It's strange that ubuntu 13.04 support openvswitch but not auto
configuration. Do we want to open a ubuntu bug for that?
+1, and/or openvswitch 1.9.0 backporting (as upstream first)
