Hi

What is the switch type property that should be set for an 'ovs' bond? 
It was decided(dev) that bonds in ovs cluster will be issued and created as 'linux' type bonds, so i'm wondering what will be the switch type for such bonds, 'legacy' or 'ovs' ?

Currently it is reported in caps as 'switch': 'ovs'}} is this is correct?

a setupNetwork command to add bonding to Vdsm should include switch: ovs in it, to tell Vdsm to prepare the bond for OvS usage.

I believe currently there's no change. Only there is new, so far purely experimental, possibility to specify switch type to be OVS. Once user does that, as a part of vdsm SetupNetworks command will be sent value "switch"="ovs" for all interfaces, bonds including. For the record, if switch property is not specified, "legacy" is passed, but this is default, which will be applied also if "switch" is not passed at all.
