<br>
I noticed that OVF_STORE volumes are not generated periodically as expected [1].<br>
It seems like the OVF_STORE volumes are only generated when the Storage Domain is detached from Engine, which is not feasible if we want to keep the VMs running.<br>
<br>
1) Is there any way to force the OVF_STORE volume creation without detaching the Storage Domain?<br>
<br>
This would be very usefull for disaster recovery, since Storage Domains can be backed up and VM can be reimported.<br>
But if the OVF_STORE volumes are not updated, critical information like the ID of the VM active snapshot will get lost.<br>
If the VM is restored with a previous snapshot (not the last one), all information written after the last snapshot known by the OVF_STORE will get lost.<br>
<br>
2) On the other hand, the only way I know to re-read the OVF_STORE content with the VM information contained in a Storage Domain, is by detaching and re-attaching it.<br>
I wonder if there is also any way to re-read the OVF_STORE?<br>
<br>
[1] : This is can be verified very easily by changing a running VM properties (change its name or create a snapshot), copying the whole storage domain and importing it into another Engine (POOL_UID and CHECKSUM must be removed from metadata in order to be able to attach to another Datacenter).<br>
<br>
PS: I'm on 3.6 RC. 1.<br>
