In rhel9.2 I am trying to Configure the bridge, physical and virtual (vhost) ports, but running into this error

Posted on

I have installed dpdk and open-Vswitch building from source code

[root@localhost ~]# ovs-vswitchd --version
ovs-vswitchd (Open vSwitch) 3.1.2
DPDK 22.11.2
[root@localhost ~]# ovs-vsctl get Open_vSwitch . dpdk_version
"DPDK 22.11.2"
[root@localhost ~]# ovs-vsctl get Open_vSwitch . dpdk_initialized
true
[root@localhost ~]#

Now when I try to Configure the bridge, physical and virtual (vhost) ports, running into this error

[root@localhost ~]# ovs-vsctl add-br ovs-br1 -- set bridge ovs-br1 datapath_type=netdev
[root@localhost ~]# ovs-vsctl add-port ovs-br1 dpdk-p1 -- set Interface dpdk-p1 type=dpdk options:dpdk-devargs=0000:02:07.0
ovs-vsctl: Error detected while setting up 'dpdk-p1': could not add network device dpdk-p1 to ofproto (Invalid argument). See ovs-vswitchd log for details.
ovs-vsctl: The default log directory is "/usr/local/var/log/openvswitch".
