Well, I really love oVirt, but I don't know.. All the solutions mentioned here are complicated and or dangerous. Including hosted ha engine that fails while deploying(for me). I think that test the backup for recovery is very important and need to be done on a regular basis, What good is a backup if you cannot restore?? I worked for a whole night trying to recover the failed engine...recovery from backup was very painful. does anyone here have a solution for testing backups (not in crises mode)?
