Subject: [ovirt-users] Reinstalling a new oVirt Manager
Hi
I want to reinstall a new clean oVirt Manager, and I have a question :
If I install a new manager, do I recover the datacenter and all the Vms
installed in it without any lost of data ?
What is the best practice to do this safely ?
Thank you for your help
Alain
Are you planning to install on a new host/VM?
You have basically two alternatives:
A. backup the DB and restore it on the new engine as described here:
http://www.ovirt.org/Ovirt-engine-backup
B. Start from scratch with a new engine on a new DB and re-import existing storage
domains:
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/ImportStorageDomain
Option B involves a lot of manual steps but it could be also used as a disaster recovery
flow when the DB is for any reasons lost or corrupted.
