Can I use the "data of storage domain", created in the old ovirt to import virtual machines in a new ovirt? It is possible to convert the "data of storage domain" in "export domain" manually?

hi, in the process of testing ovirt some questions: 1. If you are upgrading ovirt we erased the database postgress, whether it is possible to restore the list of virtual machines without having to restore the database from the dump? Take a virtual machine working on the nodes.
not easily right now. easiest (other than restore) would probably be to make the storage domain into an export domain, and import from it in the new engine.
2. Is it possible to manage virtual machines through the cli?
yes.
3. Is it possible to arrange a backup of virtual machines without interruption of its performance?
I don't think there is a simple answer to this question. can you explain what is the exact concern? thanks, Itamar
