I was going to try detatching the disk from the existing dist server, and attaching it to a new dist VM, but I ended up inadvertently deleting the disk image. I can't believe that under "storage" you can't detatch a disk from a VM - you can only delete the disk. After reinstalling dist, I got back console, and network access! I tried rebooting it several times, and console remains... so the loss of console has something to do with switching from a 4.1 VM to 4.2. I've very afraid to reboot my engine because it seems like when I reboot > hosts, I lose access to console. > > I rebooted one more VM for which I had console access, and again, I've lost it (at least network access remains). Now that this situation is repeatable, I'm going one of the ovirt gurus can send me the magical DB command to fix it. Probably not a solution to reinstall my 37 VMs from kickstart.. that would be a headache. In addition, when I try to check for "host updates", I get an error that > it can't check for host updates.
