But this requires that my entire Production Environment being off-line, to do a point update of the oVirt from 3.0 to 3.1..... oVirt Nodes can run without a Manager being present and all Guest will stay Up and running. What if, Taking the whole environment off line, is not an option... - From a DR point of view, oVirt needs a Backup solution to backup the Manager, and more importantly a Restore Option that would mean you can bring an oVirt Manager Back online without the whole lot being off-line. > ________________________________________ From: > users-bounces(a)ovirt.org [users-bounces(a)ovirt.org] on behalf of > Gavin Spurgeon [gspurgeon(a)dageek.co.uk] Sent: Wednesday, August 08, > 2012 11:35 AM To: users(a)ovirt.org Cc: Dale Macartney Subject: Re: > [Users] Wondering about updating ovirt from 3.0 to 3.1 > > > Hi All, > > I know I am not the 1st to ask, and I know I will not be the > last.... > > I have oVirt3.0 on F16, The Release Notes for 3.1 give a guide on > how to upgrade oVirt to 3.1 via a Fedora Upgrade... > > Can I do the same thing via a Clean Install of F17 (I do not like > Upgrades of OS's) ? > > Or is there a documented DR procedure assuming the host was backed > up and a new Host/OS had to be used to get oVirt back on-line ? > > Basically, What do I need to backup to then bring down the > F16/oVirt3.0 Box and replace it with a F17/oVirt3.1 Box ? > > Is this Documented yet ? > > > -- This message was scanned by DaGeek Spam Filter and is believed > to be clean. > > _______________________________________________ Users mailing list > Users(a)ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > > > > -- This message was scanned by DaGeek Spam Filter and is believed > to be clean.
