Hi Vincent,

I'm upgrading from 2 host w/ attached storage to 3-host HCI w/Gluster. What is the procedure for this? Is export domain depreciated?

1. Shut down and export all VMs -

Yes

Do I use export domain? Or is the "Backup Domain" the newer method?

* Export Domain held your VM disks **and** the Client CONFIGURATION. - It’s a save place, you can have more then one export device, like a external USB 3.0 disk. Not simultaneously but successively. - Avoid saving snapshots and it’s nearly failsafe. * Export to OVA should work similar, with free storage location of your own. - I didn't test it. * A Data Domain hold you client disk data **only**. - It can be detached. So it’s inactive on hosts but still registered in the database. - In this case you have to transfer your database with configurations to the new setup. - Then you are able to import your data domain later. * Backup Domain ???? - send references please ...

2. Detach domains from cluster and wipe hosts

Yes

3. Build HCI cluster, setup gluster bricks/vols

Did you have enough networks ports for: * ovirtmgmt 1G * IPMI 1G * Gluster Sync 10G * VM Migration 10G * iSCSI SAN 10G * Display Network

4. Attach backup domain and import VMs

VM’s only from export - or - Config and Disks from engine backup and data domains

Thanks!

Vincent
