Hi, I'm testing Backup / Restore of the engine. Once the engine is restored ; how to resync the engine database with the "reality" of the Storage Domains ? (I'm talking about anything that could have been done after the engine backup : Deleted / Created VMs ; Snapshots taken since the backup, etc.. I'm on 4.3, Oracle LVM context. My Tests : - Create a snapshot of some random VM. Say VM-1 - Enable that VM preview and start it on a host. - Stop OLVM engine server. - Start a full backup copy of that OLVM engine (That backup being a snapshot taken, say, yesterday. Our test OLVM engine being a VM running in another separate virltualization infrastucture.) The restored OLVM does not show the existence of the VM-1 snapshot. It only shows the VM running on the active instance. No snapshot. I tried Storage Domain / Scan disks. No refresh to be seen.

Hi, oVirt 4.3 reached the end of life a long time ago. Being on an oVirt distribution supported by Oracle I would recommend opening a ticket to their support. Il giorno mer 6 ott 2021 alle ore 07:10 <duparchy@esrf.fr> ha scritto:

Hi,
Thanks for your reply
Yes I did open a SR at Oracle. The current status is "awaiting internal response" (been like that for 12 days).
Perhpas you can tell me if the current oVirt release resync automatically ?
BTW, as newbie to oVirt, could please tell me what do you mean by "a long time ago" ? (just remembering the early days of internet / Mosaic browser where one week since the last releases was "a long time ago"...😉)
oVirt 4.3 reached End Of Life once oVirt 4.4.0 was released on May 20th 2020, about a year and a half ago.
