Hello, I am trying to understand different components of ovs. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong, 1. ovsdb-server : Maintains openvswtich configuration databse. 2. ovs-vswitchd : Dameon that controls all Open vSwitch swithces on the local system. When this process is started it gets its initial configuration from OVSDB-SERVER/OVSDB. 3. ovs-vsctl : Connects to ovsdb-server for any configuration changes in the data base and ensures that ovs-vswitchd has also applied all changes. 4. ovs-ofctl : Talks to ovs-vswitchd over OpenFlow to configure flows. I want to know where are these flows (configured by ovs-ofctl) stored other than ovs-vswitchd. For example, if ovs-vswitchd application crashes for unknown reason, do i lose all flow configurations? Or is it stored in ovsdb by vswitchd? Thanks,Mehul.
