Subject: [ovirt-users] reinstall hosted-engine with ovirt 3.5?
Due to a moment of idiocy I accidentally upgraded my hosted-engine vm to
Fedora 22 and now ovirt-engine will not start, I was able to get postgesql
up an running so I was able to make a backup of the engine. As far as I know
Ovirt 3.5 is not supported on F22, so my options seem limited.
1, update to the 3.6 prerelease
2, reinstall the VM, if I were doing this I would use CentOS 7
my preference would be to fresh install the hosted-engine. I am guessing the
way to go about this would be to shutdown the HE broker and agent daemons on
all the nodes, possibly clean the metadata? and the do a hosted engine
deploy as though migrating from an external engine.
Can anyone comment if this is reasonable?
You can give a try to ovirt engine appliance and then restore
from backup ;)
