oh that was close! I've almost started the migration.
Would it be safe to just move the hosted-engine VM to
another host (without changing the storage domain)?
I thought of copying all files in /etc/ovirt-hosted-engine*
to a second ovirt node and starting the VM there... any objections?
Anyway, I'm here to test new things once the issues I've
mentioned in this thread have been addressed.
hosted engine supports running on *multiple* nodes, providing out of the
box HA between them.
the setup should ask you if this is the second host and take care of all
the right things to copy.
(iirc, copying by yourself without knowing the internal details is risky
if the first host could still be used. better to add the 2nd host per
procedure, then keep or remove the 1st host)
Thanks
