Migrate Hosted Engine to a new storage

Hello, I'm trying to migrate my Hosted Engine from a old NFS storage domain to a new NFS storage domain. I am running 4.1 now. I've searched around and found this reference http://lists.ovirt.org/pipermail/users/2017-January/078739.html. Is it possible now to migrate Host Engine storage using the GUI under 4.1? I tried moving the disk using the GUI but it says the VM is not managed by the engine. Or do I need to follow the instructions listed in the post? Thanks, ... ling

Hi Ling, it's working as expected in 4.1 now but it's not something you could achieve with live storage migration from the GUI up to now. You have to use the backup and restore flow adding --he-remove-storage-vm --he-remove-hosts options to let the auto-import process trigger again: http://www.ovirt.org/develop/developer-guide/engine/migrate-to-hosted-engine... Please look also at this: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1431635
