[libvirt-users] Using source installed open vswitch with libvirt(or virsh).

	(English is not my first language Sorry for my poor English )

	&nbsp;

	OS :&nbsp;

	Linux nc233 2632-220171el6x86_64 #1 SMP Tue May 15 17:16:46 CDT 2012 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

	CentOS release 63 (Final)

	open vswitch : 11190

	virsh : 100

	ibvirtd (libvirt) : 100

	&nbsp;

	I have tried to see what the virsh setting can do to open vswitch(ovs)
until now I had installed open vswitch from a source, not by using rpm or
rpm build of the source (I had tried to do &#39;ovs rpm build&#39;
described
at INSTALLRHEL included in ovs, But i failed to do it)

	&nbsp;

	What i tried is
this(http://blogscottloweorg/2012/11/07/using-vlans-with-ovs-and-libvirt/)

	&nbsp;I installed and started up ovs and it looked like properly working I
could create and delete bridges and ports with
&#39;ovs-vsctl&#39;&nbsp;

	&nbsp;

	1 what i created before running &#39;virsh net-define&#39;&nbsp;

	--------------------------------------------

	# ovs-vsctl show

	76d9d6aa-cfce-4868-bf99-7d16bcfe38eb

	&nbsp; &nbsp; Bridge &quot;br0&quot;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Port &quot;br0&quot;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Interface
&quot;br0&quot;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
&nbsp; type: internal

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Port &quot;eth1&quot;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Interface
&quot;eth1&quot;

	--------------------------------------------

	&nbsp;

	&nbsp;

	2 And then runned &#39;virsh net-define netxml&#39;

	&#39;netxml&#39; i used

	--------------------------------------------

	&lt;network&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;name&gt;ovs-network&lt;/name&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;forward mode=&#39;bridge&#39;/&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;bridge name=&#39;br0&#39;/&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;virtualport
type=&#39;openvswitch&#39;/&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;portgroup name=&#39;vlan-01&#39;
default=&#39;yes&#39;&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/portgroup&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;portgroup name=&#39;vlan-02&#39;&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;vlan&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;tag
id=&#39;2&#39;/&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/vlan&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/portgroup&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;portgroup name=&#39;vlan-03&#39;&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;vlan&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;tag
id=&#39;3&#39;/&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/vlan&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/portgroup&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;portgroup name=&#39;vlan-all&#39;&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;vlan
trunk=&#39;yes&#39;&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;tag
id=&#39;2&#39;/&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;tag
id=&#39;3&#39;/&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/vlan&gt;

	&nbsp; &nbsp; &lt;/portgroup&gt;

	&lt;/network&gt;

	--------------------------------------------

	--------------------------------------------

	&nbsp;

	&nbsp;

	4 runned &#39;virsh start vm&#39;, and failed

	(messages had not been printed in english at my server, so i googled and
tried to choose simillar sentecne which were shown in libvirt related
threads please consider it)

	-----------------------------------------

	#virsh start vm

	error : Failled to start domain vm

	error : Unable to add port vnet0 to OVS bridge br0

	-----------------------------------------

	&nbsp;

	&nbsp;

	At that time, /var/log/libvirt/libvirtdlog&nbsp;

	(these are also translated)

	-----------------------------------------

	2013-05-23 04:32:14588+0000: 11455: error : virNetDevGetMTU:343 : Cannot
get interface MTU on &#39;ovsbr0&#39;: No such device&nbsp;

	2013-05-23 04:32:14678+0000: 11455: error : virExecWithHook:419 : Cannot
find &#39;ovs-vsctl&#39; in path: No such file or directory

	2013-05-23 04:32:14679+0000: 11455: error :
virNetDevOpenvswitchRemovePort:173 : Unable to delete port (null) from OVS:
command does not allowed

	-----------------------------------------

	&nbsp;

	&nbsp;

	I think above errors comes from install location of OVS as written in
libvirtdlog How can i solve that by hands? (I&#39;m also trying to solve the
problem by installing ovs, using rpm build) There are not only fedora or
ubuntu linux, so the solution may exist Are there a way to get libvirt to
recognize ovs-vsctl? (As i mentioned above, ovs-vsctl and ovs are properly
working)

	&nbsp;

	Thank you for reading

It looks like all the '.' in your message disappeared, making it rather
illegible.

CentOS 6.3 did not ship with libvirt 1.0.0; have you self-built some
packages?  If that's the case, would you mind trying again with 1.0.5
(or even help us test our 1.0.6 release candidate)?

Correct. When you built and installed openvswitch, it apparently was
installed in some alternate place (/usr/local?) that isn't in the PATH
supplied to libvirtd when it starts.

The simplest solution would be to find ovs-vsctl, and make a symlink to
it from /usr/bin/ovs-vsctl.

BTW, since you're apparently already building upstream libvirt from
source, I'll repeat Eric's request to try libvirt-1.0.5 or the
libvirt-1.0.6-rc2 instead of 1.0.0; many things have been accomplished
in the last 6 months.
