Would it be possible (and doable) to migrate from oVirt to RHEV?
If we start out with oVirt, but after some time we decide that RHEV would be a better fit after all, would it be possible to hook up existing oVirt/VDSM hosts to a RHEV engine, or am I thinking way too simple now?
My understanding is that you can manage oVirt Node with RHEV-M. That isn't a long term solution, but it allows you to:
- Point RHEV-M at the oVirt export domains - Shut down oVirt Engine - Provision some RHEV-H hypervisors - Live migrate workloads from oVirt Node to RHEV-H - Shut down oVirt Nodes and move to RHEV-H when they're empty
I think that someone from the oVirt/RHEV team would have to validate this approach, but it seems to me that this should work.
Cheers, Dave.
oVirt node is not supported with RHEV-M, only RHEL as a hypervisor or RHEV-H. export/import of VMs should be ok. as i just replied, attach/detach of a storage domain may be relevant as well when will be implemented (tbd)
