1:20 p.m.
Good afternoon all,
We had a confluence of events hit all at once and need help desperately.
Our Ovirt engine system recently crashed and is unrecoverable. Due to a
power maintenance event at the data center, 1/3 of our VM's are offline.
I have recent backups from the engine created with engine-backup.
I installed a clean Centos 9 and followed the directions to install
the ovirt-engine .
After I restore the backup, the engine-setup fails on the keycloak
configuration.
*From clean system:*
*Install: **(Observe failed scriptlet during install, but rom install still
succeeds)*
[root@ovirt2 administrator]# dnf install -y ovirt-engine

Please note:
The engine database was backed up at 2023-08-06 22:00:19.000000000 -0500 .
Objects that were added, removed or changed after this date, such as virtual
machines, disks, etc., are missing in the engine, and will probably require
recovery or recreation.

- DWH database 'ovirt_engine_history'
- Grafana database '/var/lib/grafana/grafana.db'
You should now run engine-setup.
Done.
