You will the DCs to share the same physical L2 to allow communication and
deploy the same OVN definition between the DCs.

Re: [ovirt-users] Communicate between the guest vm's hosted on, different hosts on different data centres using OVS

[Linov Suresh]

I have created a separate network for 10G network and made central server
part of it. After that configured the OVN controller using vdsm-tool

vdsm-tool ovn-config  

Then added OVN provider to oVirt as an external network provider and
created a new network based on OVS. Now the new VM's we create use this new
network.

Thanks for your help!

[ovirt-users] Communicate between the guest vm's hosted on different hosts on different data centres using OVS

[Linov Suresh]

Hello,

I have configured OVS network on oVirt 4.1.1, following the document
https://www.ovirt.org/blog/2016/11/ovirt-provider-ovn/

I have created OVN Provider, and created new Logical Network for OVS using
OVN Provider. I have synced the network also selected OVS when I created
the cluster.

I have two data centres and each data centre has one host each.

Now I have created VM's selecting OVS network (not ovirtmgmt). VM's in the
same data centre can talk to each other.

How do i make the VM's hosted on different data centre can talk to each
other?

Appreciate your help in advance,

Sincerely,

Suresh.

Hmm, so you have 2 10G ports on each host.  1 port is currently in use 
with oVirt, and the other isn't?  Then I think you just add a new 
network in the Networks tab called OVNLink, then go into the Hosts tab, 
click on each host and then on the Network Interfaces tab in the bottom 
of the window and assign the unused 10G network device to that link.


I haven't used OVN with oVirt, but that would work with regular 
networking so I think it should work with OVN.


If the link is already in use, you should be able to do the same thing 
only when you add the new network set it up with a VLAN ID. If you are 
going through a switch then the switch will have to be setup to handle 
the VLANs.

Hi Charles,

We use an Ethernet cable to connect between the hosts through 10G port.

We want to use the guest VM's hosted on different hosts 10G network. 
oVirt already supports SR-IOV. So we should guest 10G speed for our VM's.


In KVM we can create a second bridge and add the 10G interface to the 
bridge would do the trick.


But in oVirt how do we do this? We want to use our OVs network, which 
was created using OVN Provider.

Hi Suresh,

  You would need to connect the two OVN instances somehow.  If
it's just two single hosts, I think the easiest way would be to
create a VPN connection between the two hosts with OpenVPN or the
like and then add the tun/tap interfaces into the OVN on each
box.  You might run into problems if you start adding more hosts
though, as if the host with the VPN goes down it would disconnect
the two datacenters.

  If the two datacenters are on the same physical network (ie, you
just mean oVirt datacenter and not different colocation providers)
then adding a VLAN to the NICs connected to the OVN interface
would work.  You would probably have to setup some sort of channel
bonding/LACP as you add more hosts, but OVN should be able to
handle that simply enough.

Hi Charles,

We use an Ethernet cable to connect between the hosts through 10G port.

We want to use the guest VM's hosted on different hosts 10G network. oVirt
already supports SR-IOV. So we should guest 10G speed for our VM's.

In KVM we can create a second bridge and add the 10G interface to the
bridge would do the trick.

But in oVirt how do we do this? We want to use our OVs network, which was
created using OVN Provider.

Hi Suresh,

  You would need to connect the two OVN instances somehow.  If it's
