Dear Maintainer, We run some VM's under kvm/libvirt/virsh with openvswitch for networking. The ovs bridge is configured by /etc/network/interfaces.d/br0, which contains: # Ansible managed # one of the physical interfaces allow-bond0 eno1 iface eno1 inet manual ovs_type OVSPort ovs_bonds bond0 # the other one allow-bond0 eno2 iface eno2 inet manual ovs_type OVSPort ovs_bonds bond0 # bond them together with LACP # XXX the old config had "bond-xmit-hash-policy layer2", needed? auto bond0 allow-br0 bond0 iface bond0 inet manual ovs_bridge br0 ovs_type OVSBond ovs_bonds eno1 eno2 ovs_options bond_mode=balance-tcp lacp=active other_config:lacp-time=fast up ifup eno1 up ifup eno2 # and add the bond to the bridge # XXX the old config might of had spanning tree on # but I don't think we need it really. auto br0 allow-ovs br0 iface br0 inet static address 192.168.7.41/24 gateway 192.168.7.1 ovs_type OVSBridge ovs_ports bond0 Then when the libvirt/kvm VM's are created there ports get added to br0. After the security upgrade of ovs on the 23rd the switch was re-created but all the ports connected to the vm's where lost. I'm not sure how to resolve this situtaion other then rebooting the machine - is there some way make the OVS DB be persist over restarts? Should we be configuring OVS some other way?
