Good to know! I recall I read somewhere saying only the leader takes write request. I will double check!Well, in that case, I have another question, why is such leader role required? In a quorum based cluster, all nodes are equal. And why does ovn-northd have to connect to the leader?Guess I will

Thanks Han for the prompt responses!That option is ok for reading. If I want to write, I have to connect to the leader, right? Then my question remains, how does ovn-sbctl find out how to connect to the leader?Thanks again!TonyOn Jul 23, 2020 3:57 PM, Han Zhou wrote:On Thu, Jul 23, 2020 at 3:43

Hi,
In case of ovsdb cluster, when I run ovn-sbctl, it connects to the unix socket
of local sb-db.
If local sb-db is not the leader, ovn-sbctl tries another server to look for
the leader.
How does ovn-sbctl connect to another server? By which connection?
How does ovn-sbctl know the connection?
