rhel-systemd: Restart openvswitch service if a daemon crashes
Currently if either ovsdb-server or ovs-vswitchd is crashing the
daemon is not restarting leaving the system in faulty state.
This patch will detect the daemon crash and will restart the
openvswitch service.
Here is a (bit to wide) table showing the behavior before and after
the patch. Note that only the Crash behavior has changed:
Before patch:
| Process Status | systemctl <> status |
| ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server | openvswitch | ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
systemctl start openvswitch* | started | started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
Crash vswitchd | crashed | stopped |inactive, dead|failed |inactive,dead |
Crash ovsdb | stopped | crashed |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |failed |
systemctl restart openvswitch | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
systemctl restart ovs-vswitchd | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
systemctl restart ovsdb-server | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
systemctl stop openvswitch | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead |
systemctl stop ovs-vswitchd | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead |
systemctl stop ovsdb-server | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead |
systemctl start ovs-vswitchd* | started | started |inactive, dead|active,running|active,running|
systemctl start ovsdb-server* | not started | started |inactive, dead|inactive, dead|active,running|
With patch:
| Process Status | systemctk <> status |
| ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server | openvswitch | ovs-vswitchd | ovsdb-server |
+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+--------------+
systemctl start openvswitch* | started | started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
Crash vswitchd | crash,started| re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
Crash ovsdb | re-started | crash,started|active,exited |active,running|active,running|
systemctl restart openvswitch | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
systemctl restart ovs-vswitchd | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
systemctl restart ovsdb-server | re-started | re-started |active,exited |active,running|active,running|
systemctl stop openvswitch | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead |
systemctl stop ovs-vswitchd | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead |
systemctl stop ovsdb-server | stopped | stopped |inactive, dead|inactive,dead |inactive,dead |
systemctl start ovs-vswitchd* | started | started |inactive, dead|active,running|active,running|
systemctl start ovsdb-server* | not started | started |inactive, dead|inactive, dead|active,running|
* These commands where executed when no ovs related processes where
running. All other commands where executed when OVS was successfully
running.
