Re: [Users] error using cli on ovirt 3.1

The pki folder is likely to be a problem but the backups folder is populated. Is there a way to remove client certs from hosts to restore access with a host add process?

There were some errors at the end. Even though I used all the same passwords, the admin@internal account was not working. Used engine-config -s LocalAdminPassword='*****' to fix. On log in, everything is down, offline, unreachable. No hosts can be contacted. No storage is connected. Can't add a new host. crud. I copied the database backup and removed all the db creation part leaving just the data "copy into..." section (that was fun). Ran engine-cleanup then engine-setup then tried to restore just the data. no joy there either. The system is CentOS 6.3 as are the hosts. This ran wonderfully until I goofed trying to get the cli and sdk updated. Without the database working, I have no way to know what vm is what in the ISCSI LVM storage system to even export to another platform. So I'm assuming my next step is panic (or total reinstall from bare iron?). I'm setting this up at work and today is my last day as I'm moving to a new job at a totally different organization. I'd hate to walk out and lose all the windows VMs and templates that were built over the last 2 months. Do you still have the original backup of the database and the contents of the original /etc/pki/ovirt-engine directory? With those two things it is possible to recover. I would suggest the following procedure: 1. Make a clean installation of 3.1, exactly the same version that you had before trying to update (make a backup of the database and of the /etc/pki/ovirt-engine directory before, just in case). During this installation use the answers that you used during the initial installation (specially the passwords). 2. Stop the engine, then drop and recover the database as you already did. 3. Restore the contents of the /etc/pki/ovirt-engine directory. 4. Start the engine. You should be able to log in with the same credentials that you used in the original installation.
