You have two choices regarding the kernel module. You can upgrade to a kernel new enough that the bridge and the Open vSwitch kernel modules can coexist, or you can refrain from loading the bridge module at all. "make install" by itself doesn't install the kernel module. To install the kernel module, run "make modules_install" from datapath/linux-2.6 in the source tree. > [hyzeng@nms-oexp2 drivers]$ sudo modprobe openvswitch_mod > FATAL: Module openvswitch_mod not found. > > Is there anything I should pay attention to when installing OVS in > opensource Xen on RHEL? Another option is to use the RHEL RPM packaging available in the "master" branch of the Open vSwitch Git repository. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
