Description Terry Wilson 2022-07-06 16:03:31 UTC

Description of problem:
Currently there is no way to alter the default ovsdb-server election timer which defaults to 1s other than running ovn-appctl on the leader. The timer can, at maxi mum, be doubled each call. Getting to a desired value that would be appropriate for a load of 100 nodes requires calling the command for 2s, 4s, 8s, and 10s. It should instead be configured at deployment time.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ALL

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Deploy with OVN/RAFT
2. Check timer with ovn-appctl -t /var/run/ovn/ovnnb_db.ctl cluster/status OVN_Northbound


Actual results:
Election timer is set to the default 1s

Expected results:
Election timer is set to the default 10s (or whatever is configured by tripleo)
