10 # VSWITCH_BASE: Root directory where vswitch binaries are installed
11 # VSWITCH_BASE=/root/vswitch/openvswitch/build
13 # ENABLE_BRCOMPAT: If 'y' than emulate linux bridging interfaces
14 # using the brcompat kernel module and ovs-brcompatd daemon
17 # ENABLE_FAKE_PROC_NET: If 'y' then emulate linux bonding and vlan
18 # files in /proc as if the bonding and vlan demultiplexing done in
19 # ovs-vswitchd were being implemented using existing Linux mechanisms.
20 # This is useful in some cases when replacing existing solutions.
21 # ENABLE_FAKE_PROC_NET=y
23 # FORCE_COREFILES: If 'y' then core files will be enabled.
26 # COREFILE_PATTERN: Pattern used to determine path and filename for
27 # core files when FORCE_COREFILES is 'y'. This is Linux specific.
28 # See the manpage for "core".
29 # COREFILE_PATTERN="/var/log/%e-%t"
31 # VSWITCHD_CONF: File in which ovs-vswitchd stores its configuration.
32 # VSWITCHD_CONF=/etc/ovs-vswitchd.conf
34 # VSWITCHD_PIDFILE: File in which to store the pid of the running
36 # VSWITCHD_PIDFILE=/var/run/ovs-vswitchd.pid
38 # VSWITCHD_RUN_DIR: Set the directory in which ovs-vswitchd should be
39 # run. This mainly affects where core files will be placed.
40 # VSWITCHD_RUN_DIR=/var/xen/vswitch
42 # VSWITCHD_PRIORITY: "nice" priority at which to run ovs-vswitchd and related
44 # VSWITCHD_PRIORITY=-5
46 # VSWITCHD_NETBACK_PRIORITY: "nice" priority at which to run netback.
47 # It is a good idea to run ovs-vswitchd at a higher priority than
48 # netback to ensure that it gets enough CPU time to set up flows
49 # (bug #1656). Set this to 'default' to avoid changing netback's
51 # VSWITCHD_NETBACK_PRIORITY=0
53 # VSWITCHD_LOGFILE: File to send the FILE_LOGLEVEL log messages to.
54 # VSWITCHD_LOGFILE=/var/log/ovs-vswitchd.log
56 # VSWITCHD_FILE_LOGLEVEL: Log level at which to log into the
57 # VSWITCHD_LOG file. If this is null or not set the logfile will
58 # not be created and nothing will be sent to it. This is the
59 # default. The available options are: EMER, WARN, INFO and DBG.
60 # VSWITCHD_FILE_LOGLEVEL=""
62 # VSWITCHD_SYSLOG_LOGLEVEL: Log level at which to log into syslog. If
63 # this is null or not set the default is to log to syslog
64 # emergency and warning level messages only.
65 # VSWITCHD_SYSLOG_LOGLEVEL="WARN"
67 # BRCOMPATD_PIDFILE: File in which to store the pid of the running
68 # ovs-brcompatd (the Linux bridge compatibility daemon for ovs-vswitchd).
69 # If this is the empty string, ovs-brcompatd will not be started and
70 # the brcompat_mod kernel module will not be inserted. Note that
71 # the default is to use brcompat!
72 # BRCOMPATD_PIDFILE=/var/run/ovs-brcompatd.pid
74 # BRCOMPATD_RUN_DIR: Set the directory in which ovs-brcompatd should be
75 # run. This mainly affects where core files will be placed.
