Hi,
So what is very odd here, is that I have used ovn-nbctl to delete the NB
config, so
# ovn-nbctl show
# ovn-sbctl lflow-list
Yet I still see /etc/openvswitch/conf.db growing with updates for
Logical switch ports that no longer exist!

A shortened version of one entry Could it be that switch ports must be
deleted before
deleting the switch? I was under the impression once a switch is deleted
it's ports get deleted?
switch 712757c3-2481-4f8b-940c-05dc13ce37a5 (ls_vcn9319435_external_ugw)
port ls_vcn9319435_external_ugw-lr_vcn9319435
type: router
router-port: lr_vcn9319435-ls_vcn9319435_external_ugw
port ln-ls_vcn9319435_external_ugw
type: localnet
addresses: ["unknown"]
router 80c281af-319b-416b-8a17-0ce7b8901bb1 (lr_vcn9319435)

nat 6c87050f-cd27-423e-815e-deda74bd9bc6
external ip: "253.255.80.4"
logical ip: "10.221.0.0/16"
type: "snat"
Do each port have to be deleted or is it ok to just delete the switch
and router?

Hi,
Looking at /etc/openvswitch/conf.db I see it getting very large:

And has lots and lots (mostly) "ovn-controller: modifying OVS tunnels"
updates entries, like below.
What are these? it does not seem normal?

In which OVN version are you seeing this ?
ovs-vsctl -V
ovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch) 2.14.0_r0.0.0
DB Schema 8.2.0
# ovn-nbctl -V
ovn-nbctl 20.09.0_r1.0.0
Open vSwitch Library 2.14.0
DB Schema 5.27.0
I wonder if you're seeing this issue -
https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn/commit/e7788554a7f5e824fc0d8afc6cbf20e94fe4245f__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!bwIWH-KoNwkjzx2Sw8BLj6uGXg6zeGUoB-ZG4wtzO42NUmxA95Id3NxKLRgReUsdtEU$
Have to step out for a bit will look at this when I can
What I can say is that we are using ovsdbapp to configure central, and
I see /etc/openvswitch/conf.db
getting up to several Gb! so much so that systemd times out when you
try start the service using it.
I am also seeing ovs-vswitchd getting a SEGV on a regular basis which
I think is related.
I wondering if this patch might help
[External] : Re: [ovs-dev] [PATCH branch-2.14] python:
idl: Avoid sending transactions when the DB is not synced
up.
If you run a tail on /etc/openvswitch/conf.db, do you see the ct zone
ids toggling between 2 values constantly ?
