The OVN Metadata agent is deprecated in favor of the `OVN agent
<https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/latest/ovn/ovn_agent.html>`_. In order
to replace the the first with the second one, it is only needed to stop
the OVN Metadata agent and start the OVN agent with the "metadata"
plugable extension enabled. The OVN agent allows plugable extensions, like
for example "metadata", that can be enabled or disabled `via the
configuration file
<https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/latest/ovn/ovn_agent.html#plugable-extensions>`_.
Apart from the ``[DEFAULT]extensions`` configuration parameter required
in the OVN agent, the rest of the configuration is the same. Thus the new
agent can use the old configuration files by just adding the the "metadata"
plugable extension.
