One more place to check is: https://www.ovirt.org/images/Hosted-Engine-4.3-deep-dive.pdf I found it a few months ago, and added to the site under: https://www.ovirt.org/community/get-involved/resources/slide-decks.html But that one sadly isn't easy to find either. Google does know about it, but only if you know what to search for. We should probably add a few more internal links to make sure all content is easily accessible. > Last time I needed to fix my HostedEngine, I couldn't find anything useful. > Looking into retrospection , If I knew how to attach a rescue media and boot from it - it would take no more than 10 min to fix it - way faster than to restore from backup. There is an option '--vm-conf' you can use with '--vm-start', to pass your own libvirt-style conf. There you can add a virtual CD with an image or whatever. See slide 58 in above presentation.
