Not sure what exactly you mean: 1. You want to copy the engine to another machine and remove from the first? Use engine-backup 2. It's a hosted-engine and you want to migrate the engine vm to another host? You can use the gui and migrate it like any other vm 3. Something else? Best regards, -- Didi

Thank you Yedidyah, Let me clearify it more that i have 2 ovirt nodes in a cluster. Ovirt engine is on seperate machine on vmware workstation. Now i want to move this ovirt engine to one of my nodes (which are in a cluster). I need help with the above so that i could complete my task. Thanks in advance!

Please see the link I sent before for migrating to hosted-engine. Another option is to simply install the engine on one of the machines. I didn't try this myself, but people reported that it works. This will be simpler than hosted-engine, but will not provide the HA that hosted-engine does. If you want to do this, you should do something like: on the existing engine machine: 1. engine-backup --mode=backup --file=b1 --log=l1 2. Stop and disable the engine and dwh on this machine 3. Copy b1 to the host you want to install it on On the host you want the engine on: 4. Install ovirt-release package (same as you installed on the engine machine) 5. Install the package ovirt-engine 6. engine-backup --mode=restore --file=f1 --log=r1 --provision-db --provision-dwh-db 7. engine-setup 8. Make sure the name of the old engine now resolves to the IP address of the new host, by updating your DNS (e.g. add a CNAME record) or /etc/hosts For more details check engine backup/restore documentation. Best regards,
Regards,
