Hi,

I need help with using Python API to ovs. There is no documentation so I’m not 
sure if I’m doing all necessary step:



1. I create new ovs db:



ovsdb-tool create /usr/local/etc/openvswitch/conf.db 
/usr/local/share/openvswitch/vswitch.ovsschema



2. I run ovsdb server:



ovsdb-server --remote=punix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock \ 
--remote=db:Open_vSwitch,Open_vSwitch,manager_options --pidfile --detach



3. Then I run python and do:



schema  = 
ovs.db.idl.SchemaHelper("/usr/local/share/openvswitch/vswitch.ovsschema")

schema.register_all()

connection = 
ovs.db.idl.Idl("unix:/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock",schema)



4. And check if ever connected:

schema.has_ever_connected()



5. And the answer is: False



I can see the tables names in connection object but not rows. This means that 
schema works fine but it didn't pull the data from database. Could anyone help 
me?



Regards

Tomasz Gajewski
