When oVirt creates a storage domain , it assigns an unique id (in the engine DB) and a
single directory, named as the uuid , is created there.
As you lost the dir, your storage domain is gone but as it's an iso domain - it
shouldn't be critical.
I see 2 approaches on fixing the broken storage domain:
- log to engine, switch to postgresql and start searching in the DB for the uuid.
Then create the share, create the dir inside and then oVirt should be happy.
Yet it will start complaining for the ISOs that are also missing (and also unique uuids)
- Another approach is to try to remove the ISO domain. Have you tried to set the domain in
maintenance first and then to remove it ?
Check your VMs , if any has an ISO attached to it.
Also, you can upload an ISO to a data domain and use that to install VMs.
