Description Ales Musil 2022-08-02 07:35:06 UTC 
Description of problem:
When the log/run directory is created initially with wrong permission
ovn-ctl does not attempt to fix as the script only checks if the folder
exists. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ovn-2021-21.06.0-29.el8s.x86_64
ovn-2021-host-21.06.0-29.el8s.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. mkdir -p /var/log/ovn as root
2. /usr/share/ovn/scripts/ovn-ctl --ovn-user=openvswitch start_controller
3. ls -la /var/log/ | grep ovn

Actual results:
the directory is owned by root.

Expected results:
It should be owned by the --ovn-user.

Additional info:
This actually applies only to ovn-controller, the start of northd starts also
DB which already have:

chown -R $INSTALL_USER:$INSTALL_GROUP $ovn_dbdir
chown -R $INSTALL_USER:$INSTALL_GROUP $OVN_RUNDIR
chown -R $INSTALL_USER:$INSTALL_GROUP $ovn_logdir
chown -R $INSTALL_USER:$INSTALL_GROUP $ovn_etcdir
