Marc Dequènes (Duck) commented on OVIRT-1318:
---------------------------------------------

I looked into OpenShift rhc and there is way to do snapshots. As it takes the gear down during the process I would advise to do it not too frequently to avoid too much disruption. Maybe once a week is sufficient.

As for the rhc tool it is available and now installed.

As for granting access, there are two ways:
* using a SSH key associated to an account; but your cannot have fine grained ACLs so it would have access to all domains, which is utterly insecure
* using a token ACLs are possible, but unfortunately the token expiration is 6 months only and it cannot be extended

So I would recommend using the _contact at ovirt.org_ account which is owner of the _ovirtweb_ domain. Unfortunately I can't find the credentials either in the file or on the ML. Would someone happen to have it somewhere?

Also, because rhc was not installed, I guess the website was not saved. It is not a big deal as the builder just need to push to a web folder, so the configuration should be easy to rebuild in case of emergency, but we could save it as well.

> status.ovirt.org was set up - need to investigate if it needs to be backed up or we can produce documentation to set up a new stats page in case something happens to the existing OpenShift gear.
> We can use OpenShift's built in backup/restore functionality:
