[Pkg-xen-devel] XCP domUs not added to bridges (possible bug)

Hi,

I thought I'd query this here before opening a bug

I installed XCP wheezy and imported a couple of my domU instances

I chose to use Open vSwitch (ovs) networking mode

I notice that each vif is created (e.g. vif1.0, vif2.0) when the domU
boots.  However, they are not bridged.

As a hack, I just do

  brctl addif xenbr0 vif1.0

and then my domU is reachable.  But I realise I should not be using
brctl commands manually, it should be all managed by XCP

Can anybody comment on this?  Are there known problems with the ovs
support?  Do I have to manually install more packages to make it work
reliably, or should all the ovs packages have been installed
automatically as dependencies of xen-xapi?  Where should I look for logs
or other details before opening any bug report?

Regards,

Daniel
