Oh, sorry, I just paste a wrong log
actually my bridge has different name with port.

Hi Frank,
You can't name a port the same name as your bridge, as a bridge always
explicitly has an internal interface with the same name as the bridge,
and all ports must have different names.
Try naming your GRE port differently, e.g. test2.

Hi guys:
     I just try to create two GRE tunnels between two hosts, the result is I 
can't do this.
     vswitch complains "could not create iface test: File exists" when creating 
second tunnel.
     I did set different GRE keys for tunnels.

     I google and get some articles said it's possible to create multiple GRE 
tunnels with same src/dst.
     I am curious what technical barrier prevents our doing since GRE key is an 
natural tag to distinguish different tunnels.

     BTW: when the interface created failed, ovs-vsctl also returns a uuid as 
if it succeeds. This is very puzzle, the real result in log is:
"
Dec 30 14:40:06|04201|bridge|INFO|created port test on bridge test
Dec 30 14:40:06|04202|bridge|WARN|could not create iface test: File exists
Dec 30 14:40:06|04203|bridge|WARN|bridge test: port test has no interfaces, 
dropping
"
     cloud we have more graceful way to report such failure?

     thank you.
