None of the vmhosts have the usual vdsm running profiles. They all have:

The pki folder is likely to be a problem but the backups folder is

If you don't have the pki folder you have two problems. First is that some data in the database is encrypted, namely the AdminPassword. That you can solve with "engine-config -s AdminPassword=interactive". Second is the certificates of the hosts, the easy way to solve that is to re-install them (from the ovirt-engine GUI, no need to re-install the operating system) that will generate new certificates.

crud.

I copied the database backup and removed all the db creation part
leaving just the data "copy into..." section (that was fun). Ran
engine-cleanup then engine-setup then tried to restore just the
data.

no joy there either.

The system is CentOS 6.3 as are the hosts. This ran wonderfully
until I
goofed trying to get the cli and sdk updated. Without the database
working, I have no way to know what vm is what in the ISCSI LVM
storage
system to even export to another platform.

So I'm assuming my next step is panic (or total reinstall from bare
iron?). I'm setting this up at work and today is my last day as I'm
moving to a new job at a totally different organization. I'd hate to
walk out and lose all the windows VMs and templates that were
built over
the last 2 months.

Do you still have the original backup of the database and the
contents of the original /etc/pki/ovirt-engine directory? With those
two things it is possible to recover.

I would suggest the following procedure:

1. Make a clean installation of 3.1, exactly the same version that
you had before trying to update (make a backup of the database and
of the /etc/pki/ovirt-engine directory before, just in case). During
this installation use the answers that you used during the initial
installation (specially the passwords).

2. Stop the engine, then drop and recover the database as you
already did.

3. Restore the contents of the /etc/pki/ovirt-engine directory.

4. Start the engine.

You should be able to log in with the same credentials that you used
in the original installation.

Didn't actually roll back as 3.1 repo was disabled.

This error is caused by running ovirt-sdk on a older
version of
python (less then python27),
please upgrade your sdk/cli with one shipped in 3.2 (it's
backward compatible to 3.1).
