Description Daniel Alvarez Sanchez 2019-01-23 09:35:17 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1668660 +++

Right now, it's not possible to deploy OVS/DPDK setups via TripleO/Director when using OVN as a backend on RHOSP.

We need to introduce the necessary bits in THT, similar to what's currently in place for ML2/OVS [0]. There, the following parameters are setup [1]:

  NeutronDatapathType: "netdev"
  NeutronVhostuserSocketDir: "/var/lib/vhost_sockets"
  NovaSchedulerDefaultFilters: "ComputeFilter,AvailabilityZoneFilter,ComputeCapabilitiesFilter,ImagePropertiesFilter,NUMATopologyFilter"
  OvsDpdkDriverType: "vfio-pci"


It has to be considered as well if there's any bits missing on core OVN and open a separate BZ if so.
