Isn’t it just that manage_ovs is done from inside the CVM, but ovs_vsctl is done from the host? To configure the LACP on my home CE setup, I did it via ovs_vsctl on the hosts: ovs-vsctl set port br0-up other_config:lacp-fallback-ab=true ovs-vsctl set port br0-up bond_mode=balance-tcp ovs-vsctl set port br0-up lacp=active I seem to remember I got cut off after running one of these commands (I think it was the second one) and had to run the last command from the keyboard plugged into the host (or ILO/IPMI) :) Cheers, Steve Thank you Steve but I’ve get confused because in nutanix portal I’ve seen an article about manage_ovs is recommended way in aos version AOS >= 5.19 and < 5.20.2 my AOS version is 5.15.4
Hi Guys Manage_ovs is just a “script” that configures host networking with the recommended settings and it’s launched by the CVM (CVM communicates internally with the AHV host via the private IP 192.168.5.1) it seems to be the “recommended” way to configure host networking whereas ovs-vsctl and ovs-appctl are launched directly from the AHV host and are used to adjust specific parameters like bond-rebalance-interval on balance-slb for example You can check it in this KB https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA0320000004H0vCAE#disable_lacp I always use manage_ovs to configure AHV Networking on production systems and ovs-vsctl only to set up AHV VLAN with ovs-appct to check LACP negotiation. @Salarkarimi Here’s the specific KB for your needs https://portal.nutanix.com/page/documents/kbs/details?targetId=kA00e000000Xf2qCAC As you will see balance-slb is configured with manage_ovs and then if needed you can use ovs-vsctl to configure the bond-rebalance-inte
