[SOLVED] open vswitch in Proxmox

[fizik051]

Hi! I am trying to configure open vswitch. I have installed it by "apt-get install openvswitch-switch".
root@proxmox:~# dpkg -l | grep openvswitch
ii openvswitch-common 1.4.2+git20120612-9.1~deb7u1 amd64 Open vSwitch common components
ii openvswitch-switch 1.4.2+git20120612-9.1~deb7u1 amd64 Open vSwitch switch implementations
root@proxmox:~# ovs-vsctl show
9092e232-395a-4580-b038-6adfafbe12fc
ovs_version: "1.4.2"
And configured second (eth1) interface on server by using web interface


root@proxmox:~# cat /etc/network/interfaces
# network interface settings
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback


iface eth0 inet manual


allow-vmbr1 eth1
iface eth1 inet manual
ovs_type OVSPort
ovs_bridge vmbr1


auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 10.10.0.167
netmask 255.255.254.0
gateway 10.10.0.1
bridge_ports eth0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0


auto vmbr1
iface vmbr1 inet static
address 10.10.0.168
netmask 255.255.254.0
ovs_type OVSBridge
ovs_ports eth1

But after reboot the vmbr1 doesn't up. And eth1 is down...

Hi,
you need to install openvswitch packages from proxmox (version 2.0.90-4)

#apt-get install openvswitch-switch

It's available in proxmox pve-no-subscription repository

I installed ovs by the same command "apt-get install openvswitch-switch" and have an another version...

you should have:

root@proxmox~# dpkg -l | grep openvswitch
ii  openvswitch-common               2.0.90-4                      amd64        Open vSwitch common components
ii  openvswitch-switch               2.0.90-4                      amd64        Open vSwitch switch implementations

if not, you have wrong sources.list.

This is obviously so. How to solve this problem?

 

[tom]

fix the sources.list, check http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_repositories

 

[fizik051]

fix the sources.list, check http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_repositories

Solved my problem by add in /etc/apt/sources.list
# PVE pve-no-subscription repository provided by proxmox.com, NOT recommended for production use
deb http://download.proxmox.com/debian wheezy pve-no-subscription

And reinstall ovs

thanks
