Adding Daniel and Lucas. Maybe you can also include opendev ML to get 
appropriate responses from the OpenStack side.

Please see below for few comments.

Quick update. I changed the script to create 256 routers first, then set each

There is no create and set back to back. It seems working fine now.

It would be good someone can clarify my questions. It seems that it's not 
guaranteed that the
object is ready when client get OK response of creation request. Is this 
expected?


Thanks!

Subject: [ovs-dev] OVN: configuration in Neutron DB?

Hi,

In case of integration with OpenStack, for example, when a client requests to 
create a network,
is this network configuration saved in both Neutron DB and OVN DB, or OVN DB 
only?

The neutron API first saves in the neutron db and the neutron OVN mechanism 
driver will talk
to the Northbound ovsdb-server and create corresponding OVN logical resources.

Also, when a client gets a network from Neutron API, is the configuration read 
from Neutron DB
or OVN DB?

I think its read from the neutron DB.



Other than coding, is there any doc about how Neutron OVN ML2 driver works?

You can refer here - 
https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/latest/admin/ovn/refarch/refarch.html



I have this script to create 256 routers and set each of them as gateway.
router()
{
    local op=$1

    for c in `seq 0 1 255`; do
        echo "INFO: $op router-$c..."
        openstack router $op router-$c
        if [ "$op" == "create" ]; then
            openstack router set \
                --external-gateway public \
                --fixed-ip ip-address=10.6.33.$c \
                --disable-snat \
                router-$c
        fi
    done
}
I see lots failures from Neutron log when get/show a router. It seems like 
that, when setting a router,
the router is not completely ready yet. Is it possible?

After running that script, I see some logical routers in ovn-nb-db don't have 
gw_port_id. And there
are some duplications. Here is an example. Each of them has unique UUID.

external_ids        : {"neutron:gw_port_id"="", "neutron:revision_number"="1", 
"neutron:router_name"=router-255}
external_ids        : {"neutron:gw_port_id"="", "neutron:revision_number"="1", 
"neutron:router_name"=router-232}
external_ids        : {"neutron:gw_port_id"="", "neutron:revision_number"="0", 
"neutron:router_name"=router-158}
external_ids        : {"neutron:gw_port_id"="", "neutron:revision_number"="0", 
"neutron:router_name"=router-158}
external_ids        : 
{"neutron:gw_port_id"="e52dda53-c914-4ea7-840b-8632a5770680", 
"neutron:revision_number"="2", "neutron:router_name"=router-158}

I enabled nb-db debug logging and searched, eg. router-158, it only shows in a 
jsonrpc reply message
including 3 router-158, as the above.

Any clues?


Maybe Daniel/Lucas can comment.

Thanks
Numan


Thanks!

Tony
