Seconding what Matt said. You are also going to need to spend some time at the kilo code level to do the flavor migrations. As that was a requirement from kilo -> liberty. I also know that you needed to be on kilo.1 (or .2) to go to liberty to fix a bug in Numa Node pinning (iirc).
I would also look at the upgrade requirements for every version between icehouse and liberty and you are also going to need to perform those actions. ___________________________________________________________________ Kris Lindgren Senior Linux Systems Engineer GoDaddy From: Matt Fischer <m...@mattfischer.com<mailto:m...@mattfischer.com>> Date: Monday, January 11, 2016 at 8:29 AM To: Liam Haworth <liam.hawo...@bluereef.com.au<mailto:liam.hawo...@bluereef.com.au>> Cc: "openstack-operators@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-operators@lists.openstack.org>" <openstack-operators@lists.openstack.org<mailto:openstack-operators@lists.openstack.org>> Subject: Re: [Openstack-operators] [nova] Recovering instances from old system Personally, I'd just try to load the instance images like you said. If you try to load Icehouse records onto Liberty code its not going to work. Typically you'd do the upgrade one step at a time with database migrations done at every step.

Really I'm just looking for some input on if I should attempt to extract the records of the instance backed up from the database and manually insert them or if I should take the instance dicks and load them in as images and spin them backup from there. Hopefully I made a bit more sense this time, sorry.

You can check the nova database instances table using the uuid. How exactly did you 'wipe everything clean'?

Now that I have the infrastructure up and going again I was wondering what would be the best way to import the instances back in, I understand I may need to change some fields in the database dumps to change project ids and such but I just wanted to get some input on if this is a good idea or if there is a better way to do this?
