Subject: docs: Consistently suggest /etc/openvswitch/conf.db as location for db.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=028415b60c447f79f6bd4446365c9ff82fe35c4c;p=openvswitch

docs: Consistently suggest /etc/openvswitch/conf.db as location for db.

Our Debian and XenServer packages use /etc/openvswitch/conf.db as the
location for the database but some of the docs suggested
/etc/ovs-vswitchd.conf.db.  This settles on the former consistently.
The manpage is still ovs-vswitchd.conf.db but I don't know what to do
about that.
