<div>Haha, no problem. Darn time differences.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So some other useful links that I think will be helpful.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- <a href="https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/conf/templates/packaging/specs/openstack-neutron.spec">https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/conf/templates/packaging/specs/openstack-neutron.spec</a> </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This one is likely the biggest part of the issue, since it is the combination of all of neutron into 1 package (which has sub-packages).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>- One of those sub-packages is <a href="https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/conf/templates/packaging/specs/openstack-neutron.spec#L274">https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/conf/templates/packaging/specs/openstack-neutron.spec#L274</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is pulling in the openvswitch part, that I think u don't want (at least not always want, it's wanted if neutron is going to use it, which under certain plugins it will).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>As you've seen it likely shouldn't be installing/needing that if <a href="https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/anvil/components/configurators/neutron_plugins/linuxbridge.py">https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/anvil/components/configurators/neutron_plugins/linuxbridge.py</a> is
used.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This should be coming from the following config (which will come from the yaml files) 'get_option' 'call':</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a href="https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/anvil/components/configurators/neutron.py#L49">https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/anvil/components/configurators/neutron.py#L49</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So I think what can be done is a couple of things:</div>
<ol>
<li>Don't include sub-packages that we don't want (the spec files are <a href="http://www.cheetahtemplate.org/">
cheetah</a> templates, so this can be done dynamically).</li><li>See if there is a way to make yum (or via yyoom) not pull in the dependencies for a sub-package when it won't be used (?)</li><li>Always build openvswitch (not as preferable) and include it (<a href="https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/tools/build-openvswitch.sh">https://github.com/stackforge/anvil/blob/master/tools/build-openvswitch.sh</a>)
<ul>
<li>I think the RDO repos might have some of these components.</li><li><a href="http://openstack.redhat.com/Frequently_Asked_Questions#For_which_distributions_does_RDO_provide_packages.3F">http://openstack.redhat.com/Frequently_Asked_Questions#For_which_distributions_does_RDO_provide_packages.3F</a></li><li>This means we can just include the RDO repo rpm (like epel and use that openvswitch version there) instead of build your own.</li></ul>
</li></ol>
<div>Hope some of this offers some good pointers.</div>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Well, then I have to read thru the docs to see how it can be done thru a config option... =)<br>

Nope, I won't be able to catch you up on IRC, time difference you know :-)<br>
Anyway, let me go thru it, I'll try to sort it out.<br>

I RTFM'd all the anvil docs, but do you have any other pointer for me ?<br>

<div>Well open switch is likely needed still when it's really needed right? So I think there is a need for it. It just might have to be a dynamic choice (based on a config option) instead of a static choice. Make sense??</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The other personas don't use neutron so I think that's how they work, since nova-network base functionality still exists. </div>

<div>Any patches would be great, will be on irc soon if u want to discuss more.</div>

<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Do you confirm the basic idea would be to get rid of any openvswitch reference in rhel.yaml ?<br>
If so, wouldn't it be breaking other personas ?<br>

I can provide a patch so the team would review it.<br>

<div>I haven't personally messes around with the neutron persona to much and I know that it just underwent the "great rename of 2013" so u might be hitting issues due to that.</div>

<div>Try seeing if u can adjust the yaml file and if not I am on irc to help more. </div>

<div>Hi,<br>
<br>
./smithy -a install -p conf/personas/in-a-box/basic-neutron.yaml is failing because of openvswitch missing.<br>
See logs here [1].<br>
<br>
Does anyone knows why openvswitch is needed when asking for linuxbridge in components/neutron.yaml ?
<br>
Shall I update distros/rhel.yaml ?<br>
