Missing snap plug/interface for LXD to receive MicroOVN logs

[simondeziel]

While LXD can receive logs from OVN, we are missing an easy way to get MicroOVN logs. On the MicroOVN side, all I could find is for local log files.

Looking at the interfaces on both sides, it seems we are missing an ovn-logs one:

# snap connections lxd | grep ovn
content[ovn-certificates]  lxd:ovn-certificates  microovn:ovn-certificates  -
content[ovn-chassis]       lxd:ovn-chassis       microovn:ovn-chassis       -

# snap connections microovn | grep lxd
content[ovn-certificates]  lxd:ovn-certificates          microovn:ovn-certificates  -
content[ovn-chassis]       lxd:ovn-chassis               microovn:ovn-chassis       -

I think this (eventual) interface should only be manually connected as we would not want to always receive OVN logs. On the LXD side, this should also be conditional to having core.syslog_socket=true.

This would be a joint effort with the MicroOVN team.

@simondeziel is this related to #12836 ?

If so can we close one/other and combine the info?

Thanks for finding this dup. I'm gonna close this one now that I added the gist of the interface idea to #12836.
