Proxmox and OVS

[proxmox_user]

Hi all,

I'm fighting againts OVS and Proxmox and I am not able to win at all

I've installed OVS:

root@proxmox:~# dpkg -l | grep openvswit
ii openvswitch-common 2.3.0-1 amd64 Open vSwitch common components
ii openvswitch-switch 2.3.0-1 amd64 Open vSwitch switch implementations

but when I configure it from CLI I don't then get the same result on proxmox web interface. If I reboot proxmox I lose settings on OVS too.

I'm new to Proxmox and OVS too. Where can I find a good tutorial for begineers on Proxmox/network?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello proxmox_user

Yes, don´t use the ovs-vsctl commands for configuring but always the web portal or the related advices in /etc/network/interfaces.

I'm new to Proxmox and OVS too. Where can I find a good tutorial for begineers on Proxmox/network?

Depends what you need in particular. I don´t know a tutorial, but look here: http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/18331-Migrating-to-Open-vSwitch?p=93726#post93726

Remark: the missing function for containers is resolved in the meantime (suppose you use pve 3.3)

Kind regards
