So, after many frustrating weekends of trying to upgrade ovirt from 3.1,<br>
I have come to the conclustion that it would just be best to export all<br>
of our VM's and Import them once I have redone the entire installation<br>
with FC19 and ovirt 3.3. Is there a way to export the entire domain<br>
easily? Or to bring the entire domain into a new install of the engine?<br>
<br>
Exporting a single VM takes a very long while. It would take a couple<br>
of days to export all of our VM's (33 total vm's using 1.017 TB of data)<br>
and then reimport them using the normal means of exporting the machines<br>
off then on to the export domain, load the new engine server then import<br>
them all back in.<br>
<br>
<br>
Any tips or tricks would be welcome.<br>

do you have a single data domain in the DC?<br>
is it nfs or something else?<br>

FYI, I ran into just about every single bug that people had when<br>
upgrading from 3.1 to 3.2 and a few more. I can't spend any more time<br>
troubleshooting the upgrade process. If we can't do the export->import<br>
easily or migrate the current storage domain we will probably have to<br>
get rid of ovirt and move to another solution.<br>
