Description Marcelo Giles 2013-04-27 20:16:54 UTC
Description of problem:

After installing and configuring openvswitch, if the system is powered off or rebooted, the openvswitch service will not be autostarted, as expected

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openvswitch-1.9.0-1.el6.x86_64 
How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
# reboot
# ovs-vsctl show
2013-04-27T19:52:27Z|00001|stream_unix|WARN|/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock: connection failed (No such file or directory)
2013-04-27T19:52:27Z|00002|reconnect|WARN|unix:/var/run/openvswitch/db.sock: connection attempt failed (No such file or directory)

# service openvswitch status
ovsdb-server is not running
ovs-vswitchd is not running
# chkconfig openvswitch --list
service openvswitch supports chkconfig, but is not referenced in any runlevel (run 'chkconfig --add openvswitch')
# chkconfig --add openvswitch
# chkconfig openvswitch on
# service openvswitch start
  
Actual results:
RPM scriptlet is missing the chkconfig --add routine, for example:

# rpm -q openstack-nova-scheduler --scripts
postinstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh):
/sbin/chkconfig --add openstack-nova-scheduler
...

Additional information:
RDO/Grizzly on RHEL 6.4

Fixed in openvswitch-1.9.0-2.el6

Comment 6 Rami Vaknin 2013-06-18 06:47:31 UTC
Verified on grizzly running on rhel6.4 with openvswitch-1.9.0-2.el6ost.x86_64 (puddle 2013-06-13.2).

I rebooted all my env machines after packstack installation, openvswitch is up and respond to "ovs-vsctl show" command:

$ /etc/init.d/openvswitch status
ovsdb-server is running with pid 1316
ovs-vswitchd is running with pid 1326

$ ovs-vsctl show
