Are you planning to install on a new host/VM? You have basically two alternatives: A. backup the DB and restore it on the new engine as described here: http://www.ovirt.org/Ovirt-engine-backup B. Start from scratch with a new engine on a new DB and re-import existing storage domains: http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain Option B involves a lot of manual steps but it could be also used as a disaster recovery flow when the DB is for any reasons lost or corrupted. > Alain VONDRA > Chargé d'exploitation des Systèmes d'Information > Direction Administrative et Financière > +33 1 44 39 77 76 > UNICEF France > 3 rue Duguay Trouin 75006 PARIS > www.unicef.fr > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users@ovirt.org > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
