Hello everyone, im running on ovirt 4.3.5 For some strange reason the httpd service couldn't start on my hosted engine so i could not access the Web interface.After various unsuccessful attempts to fix it, I decided to restore the hosted engine. Following the steps: 1.engine-cleanup 2.db had to delete it manually using rm -rf /var/lib/pgsql/data 3.engine-backup --mode=restore --file=backup_file --log=log_file_name --provision-db --no-restore-permissions 4.engine-setup On step 3 it keeps coming with error messages "FATAL: Can't connect to database 'ovirt_engine_history'. Please see '/usr/bin/engine-backup --help'.

i need to get this hosted-engine up and running so please advice _______________________________________________ Users mailing list -- users(a)ovirt.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)ovirt.org Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/site/privacy-policy/ oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/S7AYLQFYRFV...

Please see '/usr/bin/engine-backup --help'. ovirt_engine_history is DWH database. So I think you miss --provision-dwh-db parameter.   --provision-db                     create a PostgreSQL database for the Engine on restore   --provision-dwh-db                 create a PostgreSQL database for Data Warehouse on restore                                      If provisioning databases, this option will default.   --provision-all-databases          on restore, create a PostgreSQL database for all the                                     databases that were included in the backup > > i need to get this hosted-engine up and running so please advice > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list -- users(a)ovirt.org <mailto:users@ovirt.org> > To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave(a)ovirt.org <mailto:users-leave@ovirt.org> > Privacy Statement: https://www.ovirt.org/site/privacy-policy/ > oVirt Code of Conduct: https://www.ovirt.org/community/about/community-guidelines/ > List Archives: https://lists.ovirt.org/archives/list/users@ovirt.org/message/S7AYLQFYRFV...
