Re: [ovirt-users] 答复: How to backup/restore the rhevm-VM in hosted-engine ?

Hi, Ryan Thanks for replying. I know your meaning and engine-backup command. But I have some questions with your way: “If the hosted-engine needs to be restored for some reason I will just recreate the OS and restore the engine database”. Do you recreate the Guest using original host? And the host needn’t to be fresh installed and just excute hosted-engine –deployed again, we can recreate another OS? *发件人:*Groten, Ryan [mailto:Ryan.Groten@stantec.com] *发送时间:*2014年9月5日4:29 *收件人:*Xie, Chao/谢 超; users(a)ovirt.org *主题:*RE: How to backup/restore the rhevm-VM in hosted-engine ? In 3.4 there is a backup/restore utility called engine-backup. You can use this to backup the RHEV-M database(s) as well as restore. Of course this won’t backup the Guest OS itself. My DR strategy is to simply copy off these engine-backup files to another location. If the hosted-engine needs to be restored for some reason I will just recreate the OS and restore the engine database.

Hi,All As the mauual, I can’t find anyway to backup/restore the rhevm-VM in the hosted-engine. The I just try to backup the storage of rhevm-VM (using cp –prf to make a copy of folder). Then I make some change and replace the origin RHEVM-VM content with my backup folder (of course I shutdown the rhevm-vm first). At last the vm can be up,but the status is *NOT* health but as below: ==================== Status up-to-date : False Hostname : 193.168.195.248 Host ID : 1 Engine status : unknown stale-data Score : 2400 Local maintenance : False Host timestamp : 1409743461 Extra metadata (valid at timestamp): metadata_parse_version=1 metadata_feature_version=1 timestamp=1409743461 (Wed Sep 3 07:24:21 2014) host-id=1 score=2400 maintenance=False state=EngineUp ============================= So are there some proper way to backup the rhevm-vm? _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
