Hi Andrei,

I think you miss understand the concept of export domain.
=20
Export domain allows you to pass entities from one data center to =
another.
OK, now I=E2=80=99ve got it. Thanks for so clear and short explanation. =
It should go straight into the oVirt manual and QA.
One Data Center can have only one Export storage domain, right ?
So 1 (single) export domain used as some kind of shared exchange buffer =
(VM =E2=80=9Cclipboard=E2=80=9D in desktop metaphor) in whole oVirt =
setup, per 1 host engine.
=20
The flow is:
=20
1) Create an export domain in DC-A
2) Export required entities to the export domain
3) Deactivate (enter the storage domain to maintenance mode) and =
detach the
export domain
4) Attach the export domain to DC-B and import the entities to it.

Looks like for whatever reason oVirt don=E2=80=99t refresh content of

=20
How to instruct oVirt to refresh and index these files?
=20
Or this method won=E2=80=99t work at all, and one have to =

Roland here ?
