- usr_lib_xsconsole_plugins-base_XSFeatureVSwitch.py
+Open vSwitch installs a number of xen-bugtool extensions in
+/etc/xensource/bugtool to gather additional information useful for
+debugging. The sources for the extensions are in
+../utilities/bugtool/plugins:
- xsconsole plugin to configure the pool-wide configuration keys
- used to control Open vSwitch when integrated with Citrix
- management tools.
+ kernel-info/openvswitch.xml
- usr_sbin_brctl
+ Collect kernel information relevant to Open vSwitch, such as
+ slabinfo.
- wrapper for /usr/sbin/brctl that provides some additional
- bridge compatibility
+ network-status/openvswitch.xml
- usr_sbin_xen-bugtool
+ Collect networking information relevant to Open vSwitch. Runs
+ the following scripts, which are described below:
- Open vSwitch-aware replacement for Citrix script of the same name.
+ * ovs-bugtool-bfd-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-cfm-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-fdb-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-lacp-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-list-dbs
+ * ovs-bugtool-ovsdb-dump
+ * ovs-bugtool-tc-class-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-bond-show

+ * ovs-bugtool-coverage-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-memory-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-vsctl-show
+ * ovs-bugtool-conntrack-dump
+
+ system-configuration/openvswitch.xml
+
+ Collect system configuration information relevant to Open vSwitch,
+ including timezone. Runs the following script which is described
+ below:
+
+ * ovs-bugtool-daemons-ver
+
+ system-configuration.xml
+
+ Collect system configuration data. This category is configured
+ to collect up to 1Mb of data, take up to 60 seconds to collect
+ data, run every time and is hidden from display in XenCenter.
+
+A number of scripts are installed in /usr/share/openvswitch/scripts to
+assist Open vSwitch's xen-bugtool extensions. The sources for the
+scripts are located in ../utilities/bugtool:
+
+ ovs-bugtool-bfd-show
+
+ Script to dump detailed BFD information for all enabled interfaces.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-cfm-show
+
+ Script to dump detailed CFM information for all enabled interfaces.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-fdb-show
+
+ Script to collect a summary of learned MACs for each bridge.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-lacp-show
+
+ Script to dump detailed LACP information for all enabled ports.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-list-dbs
+
+ Script to list the databases controlled by ovsdb-server.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-ovsdb-dump
+
+ Script to dump contents of Open vSwitch configuration database
+ in comma-separated value format.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-tc-class-show
+
+ Script to dump tc class configuration for all network interfaces.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-ovs-ofctl-show
+
+ Script to dump information about flow tables and ports of each bridge.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-ovs-ofctl-dump-flows
+
+ Script to dump openflow flows of each bridge.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-ovs-appctl-dpif
+
+ Script to collect a summary of configured datapaths and datapath flows.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-coverage-show
+
+ Script to count the number of times particular events occur during
+ ovs-vswitchd's runtime.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-memory-show
+
+ Script to show some basic statistics about ovs-vswitchd's memory usage.
+
+ ovs-bugtool-vsctl-show
- uuid.py
+ Script to show a brief overview of the database contents.
- This is uuid.py from Python 2.5. It is installed into the
- Open vSwitch RPM because XenServer 5.5 and 5.6 use Python 2.4,
- which do not have uuid.py.
+ ovs-bugtool-conntrack-dump
-To install, build the Open vSwitch RPM with a command like this:
+ Script to show all the connection entries in the tracker.
- rpmbuild -D "openvswitch_version $full_version" \
- -D "xen_version $XENKERNEL" \
- -D "build_number --with-build-number=$buildnr" \
- -bb openvswitch-xen.spec
+ ovs-bugtool-daemons-ver
-Then, "rpm -U" the resulting Open vSwitch package on the XenServer hosts in
-question and reboot them. (The openvswitch-dbg package that is also
-produced need not be installed, but it is harmless to do so.)
+ Script to dump version information for all Open vSwitch daemons.
