Uninstall Virtual Accelerator¶
If you enabled OpenStack support, remove it now:
# apt-get remove -y 6wind-openstack-extensions
Uninstall the Virtual Accelerator repository:
# PRODUCT=virtual-accelerator # DISTRIB=ubuntu-18.04 # PKG=6wind-${PRODUCT}-${DISTRIB}-repository # apt-get purge -y $PKG # apt-get update
Note
Change the
PRODUCT
tovirtual-accelerator-ipsec
for Virtual Accelerator IPsec.Uninstall the meta-package (which will remove most dependencies):
# apt-get autoremove -y $PRODUCT
If you enabled OpenStack, reinstall the latest openvswitch package (previously overridden by Virtual Accelerator):
# apt-get upgrade -y openvswitch-switch
Warning
Some configuration files are conflicting between 6WIND version and the official one. Use files from the package maintainer.
If you enabled OpenStack, remove 6WIND packages that depended on openvswitch and were thus not removed when cleaning the Virtual Accelerator meta-package:
# apt-get autoremove -y
Cleanup¶
Restart the service:
# systemctl restart libvirt-bin
