Re: [Rdo-list] Compute Node without firewall (iptables) and Linux bridge

Do you use monolithic OVS plugin or ML2 mechanism? If the latter, then the file is not involved, and you should instead try to change the value in: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/neutron/plugins/ml2/drivers/mech_open vswitch.py That said, removal of .py file is not enough to make sure it's not involved since .pyc file is still there and is used when there is no .py counterpart.
