Usually rebuilding the rpm database consists of:rm /var/lib/rpm/__db*- backup of
/var/lib/rpm (just in case)cd /var/lib/rpm/usr/lib/rpm/rpmdb_verify Packages ->
expected to failmv Packages Packages.bad/usr/lib/rpm/rpmdb_dump Packages.bad |
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmdb_load Packages
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmdb_verify Packages -> should succeedrpm -v --rebuilddb
I doubt the procedure has changed on EL8.In worst case scenario, you can copy the db from
identical host.

Just wanted to share what in subject and feedback/comments welcome.
Starting env is an external engine on CentOS 8.4, updated up to late September, with 4.4.8
async 2 (ovirt-engine-4.4.8.6-1.el8.noarch.rpm) and kernel 4.18.0-305.19.1.el8_4
[g.cecchi@ovmgr1 ~]$ cat /etc/centos-release
CentOS Linux release 8.4.2105
I migrated to Rocky Linux 8.5 and then run engine-setup to take it to current 4.4.9
level.The system is a VM on a vSphere environment.Currently there are 3 hosts with CentOS
8.4, that I'm going then to migrate to Rocky Linux too.
Downloaded the current migration script from
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rocky-linux/rocky-tools/main/migrate2ro...
chmod +x migrate2rocky.sh
My engine needs a proxy to exit on the internet and the script doesn't check my
/etc/yum.conf configuration
so I set
export https_proxy=http://my_proxy:my_proxy_port
export http_proxy=http://my_proxy:my_proxy_port (not sure if this necessary...)
otherwise when you run the script you get
curl: (7) Failed to connect to dl.rockylinux.org port 443: Connection timed out
Error downloading the Rocky Linux signing key.
then as root
./migrate2rocky.sh -r
notable things observed:
. some packages from ovirt repos are gathered too... I don't know if correct in this
stage...
Running dnf update before we attempt the migration.

Due to the oVirt related packages update, I then executed the upgrade, running the

it is something depending on 4.4.8 -> 4.4.9 or on Rocky migration:
