Hey,

We are following https://cloudbase.it/open-vswitch-2-5... link. OVS got installed successfully and it's services are in running state.

When we try to create bridge to attach it with hyperv switch, using following command

#ovs-vsctl.exe add-br br0

It does not return to power shell again and stay stuck here for long time. When we press ctrl + c then it gives warning and bridge is created. We tried to create 3 bridge, for all of them had to create press ctrl+c. The same phenomena is observed while deleting except the last bridge is deleted successfully.

Please provide me the solution related this issue.

Hi, Can you please check if the extension is enabled and running? If it is not, please enable it on the desired Hyper-V vSwitch.

Can you please post on pastebin the ovs-vswitchd log? From the behavior it seems that ovs-vswitchd is not running.
