Hi
I have installed the latest version of OVS (1.10) on RHEL 6.4 with KVM and
running two VM's on it. I followed the instructions per INSTALL.RHEL and
INSTALL.KVM but had some problems during the process, but it looks like the
install itself was successful.
The install problems were:
1. yum install kernel-kdump-devel (Error: no package ..available). This
resulted in only one (default) rpm being generated
2. make install could not install on /usr/local/bin/ because it was
read-only file system (even when I was root). Redid the configure with a
different destination and it seemed to work. (not clear if this in
itself is a problem.
After the install,
* Started ovsdb server
* ovsdb-server --remote=punix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock \
--remote=db:Open_vSwitch,manager_options \ --pidfile --detach
* ovs-vsctl --no_wait init
* Started open vswitch daemon
* ovs-vswitchd --pidfile --detach
* setup the bridge
* ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr0
* ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr0 p4p1
* *
After this I expected to see the bridges on ifconfig output, but I do not.
dmesg tail shows:
openvswitch: Open vSwitch switching datapath 1.10.0, built Jun 3 2013
16:04:10
Looking at the 'ps -ef' output shows ovsdb-server, ovs-vswitchd (2 processes)
and [ovs_workq] running. ovs_workq is owned by root, the others by the user.
I went through the discussion archive and suggestions to similar problems were
1. Look through ovs-vswitchd.log - I do not find this file anywhere,
where is it? did my install go wrong?
2. Create a new VM after creating the bridge - I tried that, but there
is no bridge with the name I created to assign to the newly created vm
ovs-vsctl shows the new interfaces and bridge created, but are these just
showing the registered names? how do I debug this?
thx,
