[ovs-discuss] raft ovsdb clustering

Hu Numan:

You need to use --db as you are now running db in cluster, you can access
data from any of the three dbs.

So if the leader crashes, it re-elects from the other two. Below is the
e.g. command:

# export remote="tcp:192.168.220.103:6641,tcp:192.168.220.102:6641,tcp:
192.168.220.101:6641"
# kill -9 3985
# ovn-nbctl --db=$remote show
switch 1d86ab4e-c8bf-4747-a716-8832a285d58c (ls1)
# ovn-nbctl --db=$remote ls-del ls1







Hope it helps!

Regards,
