Hi, I’m seeing the ovs-vswitchd process disconnect its UNIX socket, and am wondering if it’s anything to worry about. My Openflow client is able to re-attach and work again, and it only seems to be at startup time.
Here’s the switch log (/var/log/openvswitch/ovs-vswitchd.log:

=====
As you can see, the disconnects happen when the datapath ID changes, presumably
due to adding interfaces? Only the addition of the first two interfaces seem
to bring it down.
On the client side, I’m really confused. As you can see, I re-open the
connection with a HELLO message, and the HELLO response comes back with an
earlier XID (0x80 vs. the expected 0x86). Message 0x83 was a BARRIER response,
and a valid BARRIER reply was received, so it would seem that messages after
0x80 were accepted:

=====
The code on both switch and client is from top-of-tree 2.5 branch. I’m using
‘ovs-vsctl’ from the command line, and the OF client is code I’ve written that
links agains libopenvswitch.so (same code base as the server).
thanks,
Ben
