Thanks, Alon; so assuming that I want to utilize my existing database
(after working hard filling it with Hosts, Storage Domains, VMs, etc...),
but to re-deploy the environment (since I just fetched latest code from
ovirt master, for example, and I want to run it) - I assume that I should
NOT remove "$HOME/ovirt-engine" (or "PREFIX"); is it safe to simply
run:
"make clean install-dev PREFIX=[old-PREFIX]"
Right, if there is no significant change this will work, if there are database changes,
you should run engine-setup again to perform upgrade.
However, you do able to remove the entire environment without cleaning database, just run
engine-setup and then reset password using:
"${HOME}"/ovirt-engine/bin/engine-config -s AdminPassword=interactive
And you will be able to login, but lose encrypted storage secrets.
or is there something that needs to be removed / some cleanup that
should
be performed in order to make sure that there are no leftovers from
previous deployments?
As files are only added, there might be side effects.
If, for example, dbscripts were modified, you may have duplicates etc..
In this case you can remove $HOME/ovirt-engine/share/ovirt-engine/dbscripts before
install-dev.
There can be other side effects if packaging files are added.
