Ricky, I am under the impression that the DB migration was implemented in release 3.6.6. I might be wrong. https://www.ovirt.org/release/3.6.6/ What's New in 3.6.6? Enhancement oVirt Engine BZ 1241149 [RFE] Provide way to preform in-cluster upgrade of hosts from el6->el7. BZ 1332463 [RFE] restore: ensure that 3.6 on el6 backup can be restored on 3.6 on el7 Feature: Allow engine-backup on el7 to restore backups taken on el6. Reason: engine 4.0 does not support el6. Users that want to upgrade from 3.6 on el6 to 4.0 on el7 have to do this by backing up the engine on 3.6/el6 and restore on 4.0/el7. This feature, backported from 4.0, allows to do such a migration also in 3.6. Result: Using this flow, it's possible to migrate a el6 setup to el7: On the existing engine machine run: 1. engine-backup --mode=backup --file=engine-3.6.bck --log=backup.log On a new el7 machine: 2. Install engine, including dwh if it was set up on el6. 3. Copy engine-3.6.bck to the el7 machine 4. engine-backup --mode=restore --file=engine-3.6.bck --log=restore.log --provision-db --no-restore-permissions 5. engine-setup Check engine-backup documentation for other options, including using remote databases, extra grants/permissions, etc. -- Fernando Fuentes ffuentes@txweather.org http://www.txweather.org On Mon, Jun 27, 2016, at 11:15 AM, Ricky Schneberger wrote:
