Alan, IMHO this is not the scenario described in the original question - or maybe I did not understand well the original question? I assume the original question is about a scenario where engine restarts, and not about a catastrophic failure as you describe here. ----- Original Message -----

OK, so just so I understand this, in the described scenario of three servers: one management server/engine and two nodes, let's say the management server suffers catastrophic hard disk failure where no data can be recovered from it, nor were any backups made.
Is it possible to perform a new installation of ovirt-engine, add the two existing nodes, and everything "just works"? Or would you at least need to do some reconfiguring (e.g., re-add the logical networks etc.)
Basically, even though the nodes were part of the now-dead ovirt-engine, there would be no problem in getting them added in to the newly-installed ovirt-engine?
