Hi Sam,

I commented out the openstack bundles in odl-ovsdb-openstack (please see below) to test if odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl-ui will be able to load the inventory operational node into datastore. Well, it didn't do it. Is that mean that the openstack bundles are doing extra work to populate the inventory?

Actually, this what I thought I need to do (only include odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl in my features.xml), but I am not sure what part I am missing. I believe the devstack & ODL connection works since I am able to see neutron elements in datastore when executing commands like (neutron net-create net-1). So feature odl-neutron-service works. However, when I am running ODL purely from the OVSDB project it works and I can see the operational nodes. So, I am missing something in my project. Thanks Sam as always.

Subject: Re: [ovsdb-dev] ODL Inventory Khal, the OVSDB southbound plugin [1] will populate the topology with the ovsdb node information, including the bridges and ports. With devstack as part of the local.conf config the ODL address is specified. In the final steps of the stack.sh the OVSDB Manager entry is set to that address and the OVSDB nodes will connect to ODL. The OVSDB southbound plugin will see that connection and begin to populate the MDSAL operational datastore - stores the node, the bridge, the ports as termination points. From there the netvirt [2] application listens for the operational updates. netvirt also listens on the neutron events coming from the northbound side. With these two sets of events netvirt will satisfy the neutron requests. The openflow nodes inventory is populated via the openflowplugin. When the OVSDB nodes connect and netvirt sees that it will create the required bridges, i.e, br-int, and then set the Controller address. Those bridges will then connect to ODL openflowplugin port and openflowplugin will add the switches to the inventory. So you just need the odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl or odl-ovsdb-southbound-impl-ui feature to get the southbound plugin which will get the inventory for you.
