Hi, We are running some tests for which we require multiple OVSs to be deployed in the network. I want to clarify some things before we proceed. Is there multi-threading employed in the OVS kernel module? I mean If we have a cpu containing 16 cores can we run 16 separate ovs kernel modules so that essentially each core can act like an OVS? I know we can create multiple bridges on top of a single OVS kernel but that will be essentially one OVS. Please guide me in this and please correct me If I am perceiving things wrong. What we want is that multiple OVS instances should be running on multiple cores. Is it possible ? If not do we need a separate CPU or a VM for each OVS instance ?
thanks, -- Abdullah.
