Thank you for the reply. When it was first setup I messed up and didn't create the HostedEngine VM. Instead the engine is installed on the host. This is wrong, I know, but it had worked for a while. Now it is not. At this point if I could figure out how to load the images in a straight KVM setup I would be ok. But I don't understand the drive image format. I believe I have found the drive images but the file names are just guids. Is this just standard img format with no file extension? Can I just load these files as disk images in KVM? I am working on backing it all up now so I can begin to try things. I did check and the ovirt-engine service is started on the host without error. BTW. This is on centos 7. Thank you for any help you have.
