* ovsdb-tool: add --election-timer=ms option to 'create-cluster'Dan Williams2021-05-271-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | After creating the new clustered database write a raft entry that sets the desired election timer. This allows CMSes to set the election timer at cluster start and avoid an error-prone election timer modification process after the cluster is up.

* ovsdb-tool: Convert clustered db to standalone db.Aliasgar Ginwala2019-09-231-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | Add support in ovsdb-tool for migrating clustered dbs to standalone dbs. E.g. usage to migrate nb/sb db to standalone db from raft: ovsdb-tool cluster-to-standalone ovnnb_db.db ovnnb_db_cluster.db Acked-by: Han Zhou <hzhou8@ebay.com> Signed-off-by: Aliasgar Ginwala <aginwala@ebay.com> Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@ovn.org>
* Remove OVN.Mark Michelson2019-09-061-12/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OVN is separated into its own repo. This commit removes the OVN source, OVN tests, and OVN documentation. It also removes mentions of OVN from most documentation. The only place where OVN has been left is in changelogs/NEWS, since we shouldn't mess with the history of the project. There is an exception here. The ovsdb-cluster tests rely on ovn-nbctl and ovn-sbctl to run. Therefore those ovn utilities, as well as their dependencies remain in the repo with this commit.

* manpages: Include ovs.tmac in most man roots.Ilya Maximets2018-10-301-6/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows to not redefine common macroses in every single file and allowes using things like .EX without warying about compatibility. manpages.mk updated automatically. Files that are already complete pages (i.e. has no *.in sources) wasn't touched, because this will require additional file manipulations and changes in makefiles/specs without serious profit.

* ovsdb: Introduce experimental support for clustered databases.Ben Pfaff2018-03-241-9/+160
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds support for OVSDB clustering via Raft. Please read ovsdb(7) for information on how to set up a clustered database. It is simple and boils down to running "ovsdb-tool create-cluster" on one server and "ovsdb-tool join-cluster" on each of the others and then starting ovsdb-server in the usual way on all of them. One you have a clustered database, you configure ovn-controller and ovn-northd to use it by pointing them to all of the servers, e.g. where previously you might have said "tcp:1.2.3.4" was the database server, now you say that it is "tcp:1.2.3.4,tcp:5.6.7.8,tcp:9.10.11.12". This also adds support for database clustering to ovs-sandbox. Acked-by: Justin Pettit <jpettit@ovn.org> Tested-by: aginwala <aginwala@asu.edu> Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@ovn.org>

* ovsdb: add support for role-based access controlsLance Richardson2017-06-081-2/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add suport for ovsdb RBAC (role-based access control). This includes: - Support for "RBAC_Role" table. A db schema containing a table by this name will enable role-based access controls using this table for RBAC role configuration. The "RBAC_Role" table has one row per role, with each row having a "name" column (role name) and a "permissions" column (map of table name to UUID of row in separate permission table.) The permission table has one row per access control configuration, with the following columns: "name" - name of table to which this row applies "authorization" - set of column names and column:key pairs to be compared against client ID to determine authorization status "insert_delete" - boolean, true if insertions and authorized deletions are allowed. "update" - Set of columns and column:key pairs for which authorized updates are allowed. - Support for a new "role" column in the remote configuration table. - Logic for applying the RBAC role and permission tables, in combination with session role from the remote connection table and client id, to determine whether operations modifying database contents should be permitted. - Support for specifying RBAC role string as a command-line option to ovsdb-tool (Ben Pfaff).

* manpages: Put version number instead of date at bottom of page.Ben Pfaff2013-01-041-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We're really good about keeping manpages up to date, but terrible at updating the dates at the bottom of the manpages. So, instead of using manually updated dates, this commit switches to using automatically updated version numbers. We can only use automatically updated version numbers for manpages that we preprocess, that is, the manpages whose sources end with ".in". This excludes a couple of manpages that don't actually get installed with OVS, such as the manpages for ovs-ctl and ovsdb-idlc. This commit doesn't change those manpages. It does change the ovs-bugtool manpage to one that is preprocessed so that we can use the version there. Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@nicira.com> Acked-by: Ethan Jackson <ethan@nicira.com>
* ovsdb-tool: Fix indentation in manpage.Ben Pfaff2012-09-211-1/+1

* Make the location of the database separately configurable.Ben Pfaff2012-08-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | The default is unchanged, /etc/openvswitch/conf.db. This makes it possible to transition each Open vSwitch packaging from /etc/openvswitch/conf.db to /var/lib/openvswitch/conf.db independently. Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@nicira.com>

* Implement database schema versioning.Ben Pfaff2010-12-271-0/+29
| | | | | As the database schema evolves, it might be useful to have an identifier for the particular version in use. This commit adds that feature.
* doc: Change "-" to "\-" in appropriate places.Ben Pfaff2010-06-291-8/+8
| | | | | The newer manpages tend to get this right more often than the old ones, but there were lots of places that needed to be corrected.
