Re: [ovs-discuss] Restart of Both Switches Required on Reboot
Ok I seem to have "solved" this. It seems it was a symptom of a setting in the systemd service file for the sx1.service. The version of sx1.service that did NOT work had "sw1.service" in the "After=" line. The version of sx1.service that did NOT work is this one below. [root@o78sv1 system]# cat sx1.service [Unit] Description=sx1 Service Wants=network-online.target After=network-online.target sw1.service [Service] Type=oneshot User=root RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/etc/network/openvswitch/crt_ovs_sx1.sh ExecStop=/usr/bin/ovs-vsctl del-br sx1 [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target [root@o78sv1 system]# To get it to work properly on reboot on Oracle Linux 7, I had to change the "After=" line to this (removed sw1.service). After=network-online.target No idea really why this actually fixed the problem of switch sx1 failing to come up and acquire an ip address on reboot, and also no idea why the version that included sw1.service in the "After=" line works ok on Oracle Linux 8 but not on Oracle Linux 7.

Greg, thanks! You are exactly right. We standardized Orabuntu-LXC on 2.12.1 which fixed the problem because it's one of the release that has Aaron's patch built in.

Probably not - I haven't tried this or looked closely at the error but it looks like a header has been moved or changed in some way.

Re: [ovs-discuss] Connecting two servers over layer 2 openvswitch without encapsulation
Ben, when I build a cluster database on a layer 3 network, I can push packets between cluster database nodes at MTU 1500 or use jumbo frames if I set that up and use MTU 9000. But when I cluster databases over layer 2, I have to use something like MTU 1420 or MTU 8920 which databases typically do not like and do not play well with at least in my experience. So that's what I'm asking really. But afaik encapsulating packets and using MTU 1420 or MTU 8920 is kind of a fundamental principle on layer 2 over layer 3, kind of like e=mc2 inescapable a fundamental principle that cannot be avoided.

[ovs-discuss] OpenvSwitch 2.11.2
This is just a purely informational / documentation question. I've been testing out the new "ovs" option of Orabuntu-LXC and I mistakenly set it to build RPMs for 2.11.2 and upgrade Openvswitch to 2.11.2. The RPM build and upgrade succeeded, but then I took a look at the OpenvSwitch Downloads page and noticed that there is no "2.11.2" listed there for download. Is that an omission on the download page, or is 2.11.2 a version that is "not being advertised" ? Just checking - maybe it is there and I'm not looking in the right spot ...

[ovs-discuss] OpenvSwitch Version after OpenvSwitch Upgrade
Doing some testing of a new "ovs" build functionality built-in to Orabuntu-LXC which allows Orabuntu-LXC to be used purely as a tool for testing building and upgrading OpenvSwitch from source on RedHat-family Linux flavors and distros. This mode of Orabuntu-LXC bypasses all the container deployment functionality and just builds RPM for any supported version of OpenvSwitch and then installs the RPMs, allowing Orabuntu-LXC to be used purely as an OpenvSwitch build method development tool separate from Orabuntu-LXC's larger functionalities. So I build OpenvSwitch 2.4.0 RPMs on Oracle Linux 6. Install them. Then I build OpenvSwitch 2.5.0 RPM's on same host. Install them. Then I build OpenvSwitch 2.5.9 RPMs on Oracle Linux 6 (same host) but this time run the full Orabuntu-LXC suite and create LXC linux containers and OpenvSwitches for them to run on, and VLAN's etc., i.e. a full container landscape, which also upgrades OpenvSwitch by RPM from 2.5.0 to 2.5.9. Alles gut and I check: [ubuntu@oracle61 uekulele]$ sudo ovs-vsctl --version ovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch) 2.5.9 Compiled Oct 25 2019 14:31:55 DB Schema 7.12.1 gives 2.5.9 but when I run "ovs-vsctl show" the output gives (at the end) as shown below and surprisingly goes all the way back to the original 2.4.0 that I installed in Orabuntu-LXC "ovs" mode for just building and install Openvswitch (but not creating any switches). So I'm wondering why if no switches were created between the upgrade of OpenvSwitch from 2.4.0 --> 2.5.0 why "ovs-vsctl show" does not at least show "2.5.0" since the switches themselves were not created until the 3rd run when I ran the full Orabuntu-LXC installer to create a container landscape.

Re: [ovs-discuss] OpenvSwitch Version after OpenvSwitch Upgrade
Hi Ben, thanks! Well that solves my problem anyway. Prior to this "ovs" mode option, Orabuntu-LXC deployed a container landscape complete with OpenvSwitch RPM deployment and configuration of switches, and that was it. Any upgrade to OpenvSwitch was basically in the hands of the owner of the deployment. So the Orabuntu-LXC code just deployed and started OpenvSwitch up (no "start/stop" cycle of OpenvSwitch needed as it was a "one-time" install). So after your reply (thanks) light bulb went on and I had a D'oh! moment and just added the stop/start code below and that took care of it of course. So now Orabuntu-LXC users can maintain and upgrade their OpenvSwitch using Orabuntu-LXC "ovs" mode and are not "on their own" to deal with upgrading OpenvSwitch independently and therefore can take advantage of all the Orabuntu-LXC OpenvSwitch build logic that is built into the Orabuntu-LXC software. if [ $Release -ge 7 ] then sudo systemctl stop openvswitch.service <-- code added for "ovs" mode sudo systemctl start openvswitch.service elif [ $Release -eq 6 ] then sudo service openvswitch stop <-- code added for "ovs" mode sudo service openvswitch start sudo chkconfig openvswitch on fi And now the result immediate after the upgrade from 2.4.0 --> 2.5.0 [ubuntu@oracle61 anylinux]$ sudo ovs-vsctl show 6ed8c2bd-2cb0-4a9c-9f98-1626bff4357b ovs_version: "2.5.0" [ubuntu@oracle61 anylinux]$ ovs-vsctl --version ovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch) 2.5.0 Compiled Oct 25 2019 15:48:42 DB Schema 7.12.1 [ubuntu@oracle61 anylinux]$ ________ From: Ben Pfaff Sent: Friday, October 25, 2019 3:14 PM To: Gilbert Standen Cc: ovs-discuss@openvswitch.org Subject: Re: [ovs-discuss] OpenvSwitch Version after OpenvSwitch Upgrade Hi, good to hear from you. Thanks for maintaining OVS on Orabuntu-LXC. I took a look at the OVS scripts. The ovs-version gets set in the database at the step where ovs-ctl prints out "Configuring Open vSwitch system IDs". This happens just after starting ovsdb-server. If the upgrade process you're using does not go through that step, then it's possible that the database entry doesn't get updated. Can you check to see whether that's what is happening? (I guess that we could make ovs-vswitchd set this value, which might make it closer to 100% reliable, but that is not how it works now.)

Re: [ovs-discuss] Build OpenvSwitch on Oracle Linux 8
FYI This is what is working after several rounds of testing various methods so far. Some notes: (1) I've tried rolling my own python-six using py2pack (search google on keywords "py2pack james adam creating rpms" ) but it doesn't work because even though I can build the RPM, it won't install the resulting RPM because there are several "conflicting files" errors during the installed of the roll-your-own RPM that conflict with files in the python3-six that comes with the Oracle8 distro by default; and, the python3-six cannot be uninstalled because the new dnf capability in Oracle8 depends on that python3-six that comes with the distro so the OS blocks uninstall of python3-six. I haven't considered whether dnf could be uninstalled but won't go there because an Orabuntu-LXC design principle is we are a pure overlay we don't reconfigure anything unless absolutely unavoidable. However, as indicated in the recipe, the python-six noarch from the CentOS7 repo installs fine with no issues and moreover the openvswitch build likes it. (2) When I try to have the build depend entirely on python3-six (and skip the install of the CentOS7 python-six noarch rpm) and just update the spec file to use "python3-six" throughout I get errors in the OpenvSwitch build. I get errors that "files 'ovs-test' and 'ovs-l3ping' are missing and cannot be deleted." (3) The python py36env virtual python environment also is needed; without it I get errors in the build.

Some notes: (1) I've tried rolling my own python-six using py2pack (search google on keywords "py2pack james adam creating rpms" ) but it doesn't work because even though I can build the RPM, it won't install the resulting RPM because there are several "conflicting files" errors during the installed of the roll-your-own RPM that conflict with files in the python3-six that comes with the Oracle8 distro by default; and, the python3-six cannot be uninstalled because the new dnf capability in Oracle8 depends on that python3-six that comes with the distro so the OS blocks uninstall of python3-six. I haven't considered whether dnf could be uninstalled but won't go there because an Orabuntu-LXC design principle is we are a pure overlay we don't reconfigure anything unless absolutely unavoidable. However, as indicated in the recipe, the python-six noarch from the CentOS7 repo installs fine with no issues and moreover the openvswitch build likes it. (2) When I try to have the build depend entirely on python3-six (and skip the install of the CentOS7 python-six noarch rpm) and just update the spec file to use "python3-six" throughout I get errors in the OpenvSwitch build. I get errors that "files 'ovs-test' and 'ovs-l3ping' are missing and cannot be deleted." (3) The python py36env virtual python environment also is needed;
Re: [ovs-discuss] Build OpenvSwitch on Oracle Linux 8
So this error about the missing files ovs-test and ovs-l3ping: rm: cannot remove '/opt/olxc/home/ubuntu/Downloads/orabuntu-lxc-6.12.13-beta/uekulele/openvswitch/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/openvswitch-2.11.1-1.x86_64/usr/bin/ovs-test': No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/opt/olxc/home/ubuntu/Downloads/orabuntu-lxc-6.12.13-beta/uekulele/openvswitch/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/openvswitch-2.11.1-1.x86_64/usr/bin/ovs-l3ping': No such file or directory error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.ah3XN9 (%install) had me stumped for most of the day. I had gotten everything to build correctly and install on the dev box but on a fresh machine, as mentioned, I got this error, indicating I had still failed to capture some step that was required for the successful openvswitch build. Finally I remembered that on the dev box I had done this step too: if [ $Release -eq 8 ] then wget https://rpmfind.net/linux/centos/7.7.1908/os/x86_64/Packages/python-six-1.9.0-2.el7.noarch.rpm <-- This step sudo yum -y localinstall python-six-1.9.0-2.el7.noarch.rpm <-- This step sudo yum -y module install python36 sudo yum -y module install python27 sudo yum -y install python3-sphinx sudo yum -y install python3-six sudo yum -y install selinux-policy-devel unbound-devel sudo alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3 python3 -m venv py36env source py36env/bin/activate python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip python3 -m pip install six python3 -m pip install sphinx sed -i 's/BuildRequires: python-six/BuildRequires: python3-six/g' openvswitch.spec sed -i 's/BuildRequires: python-sphinx/BuildRequires: python3-sphinx/g' openvswitch.spec sudo cat openvswitch.spec | grep python3 sleep 5 fi That step had been done early on when I was looking for some already-built rpm for python-six to just jerry-rig it into building successfully. That python-six comes from a CentOS7 repo and it installs with no issues on Oracle Linux 8. I think a better solution is needed such as building it from source on Oracle Linux 8. But it does work and it gets rid of the error about the missing ovs-test and ovs-l3ping during the build. I think it has to do with this part of the spec file: Requires: logrotate, hostname, python >= 2.7, python-six BuildRequires: python-six BuildRequires: openssl-devel BuildRequires: checkpolicy, selinux-policy-devel BuildRequires: autoconf, automake, libtool BuildRequires: python-sphinx BuildRequires: unbound-devel I can get around the "BuildRequires" as previously discussed by changing them to "python3-six" and "python3-sphinx" but I guess (?) that the "Requires" which includes "python-six" really does require "python-six" and not "python3-six" because when I change the Requires to "python3-six" and don't install the python-six from the CentOS7 repo, I get the error about the missing ovs-test and ovs-l3ping. So it is building OK now with no problems perfectly, and all the test suite is passed 100% successfully, but I will work on a better solution than just using the CentOS7 python-six.

The RPM spec file requires the RPMs it mentions to be installed (for Python 2), but you used pip to install them (for Python 3). My guess is that "yum install python-six python-sphinx selinux-policy-devel unbound-devel" or its Oracle equivalent will fix the problem.
