[OVSDB-421] Tunnel_ips of hardware_vtep is cleared when Open vSwitch process restarted in Open vSwitch HWVTEP Emulator

Mon, 30 Oct 2017 19:50:58 +0000

Issue:
Tunnel_ips of hardware_vtep is cleared when Open vSwitch process restarted in Open vSwitch HWVTEP Emulator.

Tunnel_ips is cleared when ovsdb-server connects to ODL.

Details:
In one L2GW Node(with HA setting) environment, restart Open vSwitch process after GW/CONNECTION creation : 5 / 5 times happened
In one L2GW Node(without HA setting) environment, restart Open vSwitch process after GW/CONNECTION creation : 0 / 5 times happened

Reproduction Steps
1.Initialization
1.1 Initialize ODL
Delete snapshots, journal, data folders
Start ODL
Install feature
1.2 Set OVS in Controller/Compute Node to connect ODL
1.3 Create Network
1.4 Initialize L2GW Node and connect to ODL
1.5 Create GW/CONNECTION
2.L2GW Node process
ovsdb-client dump hardware_vtep > /tmp/before
ps -ef|grep ovs-vtep | grep -v grep | awk '

{print "kill "$2}

' | sh
pkill ovs-vswitchd
pkill ovsdb-server
ovs-dpctl del-flows system@ovs-system
ps -ef | grep ovs | grep -v grep
ps -ef | grep -v '[' | grep -v grep
3.Start L2GW Node process
vtep=10.0.0.50
ovsdb-server --pidfile --detach --log-file \
-vsyslog:dbg -vfile:dbg \
--remote=punix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock \
--remote=db:hardware_vtep,Global,managers \
--remote=ptcp:6632 /etc/openvswitch/ovs.db /etc/openvswitch/vtep.db
ovsdb-client dump hardware_vtep > /tmp/after-1
sleep 1
ovsdb-client dump hardware_vtep > /tmp/after-2
sleep 1
ovsdb-client dump hardware_vtep > /tmp/after-3
sleep 1
ovsdb-client dump hardware_vtep > /tmp/after-4

LOG Info:
The following logs are collected for environment of L2GW Node with HA setting.
karaf.log
ovsdb-server.log

Investigation:
We found the tunnel_ips setting requests log in ovsdb-server.log:
