Currently, ovsdb-server drops all connections whenever a database is added or removed, so each client can simply check the list when it reconnects.

I doubt that it is a big deal. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
