Description Dan Williams 2020-04-28 19:37:49 UTC 
https://github.com/ovn-org/ovn-kubernetes/pull/1309

/usr/bin/ovn-nbctl lrp-add GR_node1 rtoj-GR_node1 0a:58:64:40:8b:09 100.64.139.9/29

yields:

"port already exists with mac 0A:58:64:40:8B:09"

MACs are case sensitive so it seems like both forms should be accepted and canonicalized to whatever internal representation OVN wants to use.
Comment 1 Dan Williams 2020-05-08 17:46:00 UTC 
"MACs are case sensitive so " <--- should read "case *in*sensitive"
