Federico, Maor: tldr; Can you offer some advice for recovering this block SD 
after a DC disaster?

Hi Alain,

After looking at your logs, it's clear that the metadata on the storage domain 
itself says that the domain is attached to pool
c58a44b1-1c98-450e-97e1-3347eeb28f86 while engine thinks the domain is attached 
to pool f422de63-8869-41ef-a782-8b0c9ee03c41.

Can you please explain the process you used to recover from your datacenter 
disaster?  My guess is you:
  1. Reinstalled the engine host with a blank oVirt DB
  2. Created a new data center
  3. Created a new master domain
  4. Attached some storage domains which were not attached at the time
     of your previous disaster
  5. Tried to attach sd:d7b9d7cc-f7d6-43c7-ae13-e720951657c9 which was
     attached to your old storage pool at the time of the disaster.

#5 failed because the metadata on the storage shows the old storage pool.  At 
this point I see two possible options to recover your storage.  PLEASE DO NOT 
DO ANYTHING YET (until we confirm what the best approach for recovery will be).

Option 1: Use the new import storage domain feature to import this domain into 
your new datacenter.

Option 2: Modify the storage domain metadata to remove the reference to the old 
storage pool.

I am adding some other oVirt storage experts to the thread in order to offer 
you the best advice.  Federico, Maor: can you offer some expert advice on this 
matter?

I did notice this wiki page which talks about clearing the storage pool 
metadata from an export domain.  Since this SD is iSCSI, it will be a bit more 
difficult to manually edit the md but I'd guess someone has a script or some 
instructions on how to do it.
