RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
With ovs-vsctl user can modify ovs database directly. This is useful for
creating OVN bridge mappings which are stored in "open" table e.g.
ovs-vsctl set open . external-ids:ovn-bridge-mappings=provider:br-provider
nmstate should provide schema that would allow direct modification of the database e.g.
ovs-db:
table:
row:
key: value
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
nmstate-0.3
Patch posted on https://github.com/nmstate/nmstate/pull/1423
Support querying and changing `external_ids` or `other_config` of OVS
database `Open_vSwitch` table.
The desire state(in yaml format) would be:
```yaml
ovs-db:
external_ids:
ovn-bridge-mappings: provider:br-provider
other_config:
stats-update-interval: "10000"
```
The desire state will be merging with current state, to remove a entry:
```yaml
ovs-db:
external_ids:
ovn-bridge-mappings: None
```
To remove all `external_ids` and `other_config`:
```yaml
ovs-db: {}
```
Limitations:
* There is no rollback support in ovsdb plugin.
* All value should be string, please quote the integer like above.

For a yaml file, I think it is Null or null, right?
