So It works if I manually configure the br-int MTUs:

#ovs-vsctl set interface vnet1 mtu_request=8900
#ovs-vsctl set interface vnet1 mtu=8900
#ovs-vsctl set interface vnet2 mtu_request=8900
#ovs-vsctl set interface vnet2 mtu=8900#ovs-vsctl get interface vnet2 mtu
8900
# ovs-vsctl get interface vnet1 mtu
8900


But I'm thinking that I should be able to modify the VM  KVM XLM, to specify an MTU for the openvswitch interface, something like:

  <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='00:13:97:b6:0f:3c'/>
      <source bridge='br-int'/>
      <virtualport type='openvswitch'>
        <parameters interfaceid='e2ce9e04-25f3-11eb-9180-0010e0c3df92'/>
      </virtualport>
      <model type='virtio'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' 
function='0x0'/>
       <mtu size='8900'/>
    </interface>


Then hopefully the libvert plugin will configure the OVS bridge MTUs to 8900

Folks,

I'm trying to get OVN working in a 9000 MTU config so :

 ovn-nbctl list dhcp-option
_uuid               : 00f684c8-42bb-4fad-a248-f5697926778d
cidr                : "10.225.1.0/24"
external_ids        : {}
options             : {lease_time="3600", mtu="9000", router="10.225.1.1", server_id="10.225.1.1", server_mac="00:13:97:60:de:6a"}

The hypervisor phys interface MTU is 9000, so I know the above should specify MTU of 8950 to account for the geneve header, in any case I manually lower the MTU on the VM node but things still don't work. And I think the reason is that when I looked at the OVS br-int, I see the OVN port MTU is 1500. How
do I get OVN to create the br-int port with a 9000/8950 MTU?

Is this something we have to manually configure on the OVS bridge?
