Public bug reported: It seems that updating the role attribute of a connection has no affect on existing connections. For example when investigating another bug I needed to disable rbac but to get that to take effect I needed to either restart the southbound listener or the ovn-controller.
fwiw these are the steps I took to disable rbac (excluding the restart): # ovn-sbctl find connection _uuid : a3b68994-4376-4506-81eb-e23d15641305 external_ids : {} inactivity_probe : 60000 is_connected : false max_backoff : [] other_config : {} read_only : false role : "" status : {} target : "pssl:16642" _uuid : ee53c2b6-ed8b-4b21-9825-a4ecaf2bdc95 external_ids : {} inactivity_probe : 60000 is_connected : false max_backoff : [] other_config : {} read_only : false role : ovn-controller status : {} target : "pssl:6642" # ovn-sbctl set connection ee53c2b6-ed8b-4b21-9825-a4ecaf2bdc95 role='""' # ovn-sbctl find connection _uuid : a3b68994-4376-4506-81eb-e23d15641305 external_ids : {} inactivity_probe : 60000 is_connected : false max_backoff : [] other_config : {} read_only : false role : "" status : {} target : "pssl:16642" _uuid : ee53c2b6-ed8b-4b21-9825-a4ecaf2bdc95 external_ids : {} inactivity_probe : 60000 is_connected : false max_backoff : [] other_config : {} read_only : false role : "" status : {} target : "pssl:6642" ** Affects: openvswitch (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1917485 Title: Adding RBAC role to connection does not affect existing connections To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openvswitch/+bug/1917485/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
