Hi,


I’m not sure if my thread before is correctly received by everyone when posted via the website...therefore again via email.

Sorry if now everyone received this twice...

We are running our ovirt 4.3 test infrastructure on 4 Centos hosts. Our self-hosted engine further manages several stand alone hosts as separate datacenters. 


We'd like now to reinstall the whole thing in a best practice way with oVirt node and a fresh hosted engine. We have planned to: 

- set up 2 of the 4 hosts with ovirt node 

- shut down the old hosted engine 

- set up the new hosted engine with the same name 

- move the VM's from the old cluster to the export domain in a maintenance windows 

- import the VMs to the new cluster 

- attach the stand alone hosts to the new hosted engine in again separate datacenters 


Is this way possible to go or are there other ways e.g. without the need of a maintenance window? 


Thanks for your thoughts!
