Configuring and Running VRS or VRS-G
The HP startup script that is provided takes care of starting all the components as well as the
basic configuration of VRS. This is mainly the creation of a bridge into VRS and the assignment
of an OpenFlow controller to that bridge. The configuration is loaded upon startup of the
openvswitch script according to a configuration file.
1. Edit the configuration file at
/etc/default/openvswitch by specifying the IP addresses of
the active and standby VSC:
ACTIVE_CONTROLLER=1.2.3.4
STANDBY_CONTROLLER=1.2.4.5
2. Restart the VRS or VRS-G.
3. Verify VRS connected to VSC successfully:
ovs-vsctl show
