The OVN southbound database, however, is a likely candidate\nfor high availability clustering, so that even if it appears to be\ndown for a moment it will be available again soon. So, prepare for\nthe clustering implementation by enabling retry by default in\novn-sbctl.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ben Pfaff \n---\n ovn/utilities/ovn-sbctl.c | 2 +-\n 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-)","diff":"diff --git a/ovn/utilities/ovn-sbctl.c b/ovn/utilities/ovn-sbctl.c\nindex 7af5863b08fc..f4452fa6ee85 100644\n--- a/ovn/utilities/ovn-sbctl.c\n+++ b/ovn/utilities/ovn-sbctl.c\n@@ -120,7 +120,7 @@ main(int argc, char *argv[])\n }\n \n /* Initialize IDL. */\n- idl = the_idl = ovsdb_idl_create(db, &sbrec_idl_class, false, false);\n+ idl = the_idl = ovsdb_idl_create(db, &sbrec_idl_class, false, true);\n run_prerequisites(commands, n_commands, idl);\n \n /* Execute the commands.\n","prefixes":["ovs-dev","RFC","39/52"]}
