Thanks Ian,
I don't see  the OVS_GIT_REPO=
OVS_GIT_TAG= in the local.conf in this link
I see  "enable_plugin networking-ovs-dpdk https://github.com/openstack/networking-ovs-dpdk master "
Can I  change this to my path ?  how to be  compatible with git clone command ?
Regards avi

Thanks Ian
I have ovs-dpdk in my dev environment on  my server , and I want to
use this ovs-dpdk Can I set the path to ovs-dpdk in the local.conf ?
Regards avi

So I'd recommend following

https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/using-open-vswitch-and-dpdk-
with-neutron-in-devstack

There is a sample local.conf included in the guide which uses the networking-
ovs-dpdk plugin to download and install ovs-dpdk.

By default the networking-ovs-dpdk plugin will download the ovs branch and
tag specified in its default settings(as of now its DPDK branch 16.11 and OVS
commit ID 04de404e1bfa63706237aa78ee065d67538f8fe9).

You can override these values in your local.conf by specifying

OVS_GIT_REPO=

OVS_GIT_TAG=

with your own ovs-dpdk path (note the patch should be specified in a
manner that is compatible with git clone command, the plugin will clone and
build your ovs-dpdk as part of its scripted behavior).

If you have any queries related to the plugin then better off consulting the
documentation for it at

https://github.com/openstack/networking-ovs-
dpdk/tree/master/doc/source

Hope this helps.

Ian

Hi,
I have my version of openvswitch
How can I tell devstack/openstack to run my version ?

From what I'm aware Openstack/Devstack supports both kernel Open
vSwitch and Open vSwitch deployed in userspace with DPDK. Is your
version one of these? Guides are available for both:

http://docs.openstack.org/liberty/networking-guide/scenario-classic-
ovs.html

https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/using-open-vswitch-and-dpd
k-
with-neutron-in-devstack

If your OVS is different to these then its probably best to ask the
Open Stack community mailing list for guidance.

Ian
