[ovirt-users] Re: multiple engines (active passive)

I'm still sort of new to ovirt, but I went through a similar things. I had my original engine fail and had to recover, so here is my "oVirt HA plan" 1. I do NOT use hosted ovirt, I had issues getting it deployed correctly, and that doesn't help if they engine VM itself has issues. My engine is hosted on a completely separated 2-node hyper-converged Hyper-V Cluster. Unless you have a cluster larger than 3 hosts, I really don't think hosted ovirt is a good idea, it would make more sense to just load ovirt on another PC by itself. 2. I plan on loading another copy of ovirt in a "cold storage" configuration. Where it will be loaded on centos, and configured as close as I can without adding in any hosts. I'll probably keep it turned off and try to updated it once a month or so. 3. If I have another oVirt failure, I know to log in, put the storage domains into maintenance mode if possible, and copy out any needed config items i may have missed. I will the shut it off and delete it. I then will reboot all the hosts one at a time to clear out any sanlock issues, then add the hosts to the new copy of ovirt and import the storage. I estimate that process to take around 2-4hrs. _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users(a)ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/site/privacy-policy/ oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/AHD3OABM65F...
