<br>
In a lab, I have an oVirt test datacenter using a very old SAN (iSCSI setup).<br>
There are very few VM on it, and none of them are in critical.<br>
<br>
Some risky maintenance is to be planned on the SAN, and the risk is to lose it all.<br>
To be honnest, to lose these VMs is bearable, but to lose the setup would be painful (quite long to set everything back up).<br>
<br>
This is not an hosted setup, so I guess most of the config lies in the manager, and this part will stay untouched.<br>
<br>
My question : Is there any benefit to add an small additionnal temporary storage domain where (some unknown by me) meta datas could be duplicated (knowing that I have not enough room to export the VM)?<br>
What additionnal setup would be saved this way?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
