I think ideally these properties should be dynamically changeable so that OVS can be reconfigured even after it is running. That is true of all other settings in the database and would eliminate any concern about startup order. I realize that DPDK is not currently setup to do this but I think that's the direction that we should be pushing. In terms of the larger direction though, I don't like the existing DPDK command line options and support moving them into the database. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
