I think that is a misunderstanding. "Omit alert" does not suppress messages from ovsdb-server. Instead, it keeps the ovsdb IDL from incrementing the sequence number that indicates that something has changed in the database, that is, it keeps from alerting the IDL's client that something has changed. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
