We are currently evaluating ovirt for our new VM backend and part of that is moving the
engine to a physical controller node. So I took the opportunity to test a DR scenario
where the engine fails and takes more than a reboot to bring it back up. For the most part
it was straight forward to get it up and going, but I'm having a hard time getting the
previous master data domain to import into the new engine. I've attached relevant
snippets of the engine and vdsm log.

Am I correct in the assumption that importing a previously master data domain into a fresh
engine without a current master domain is supported?

It's supported only in case the master domain was previously correctly
detached from the data center.
In case of an unexpected complete disaster, when a fresh engine is
installed and used, it's still possible to recover the master domain in
theory. You must find `metadata' file in the master domain and edit it
for the new engine. It's completely unsupported and it may or may not
work. We don't have guidelines how to do it, but you may try to create
a new master domain, then detach it and compare the two metadata files.

Thank you!
That does do some interesting things, but doesn't appear to work.
I've added a new storage domain, merged the differences in the metadata file back to
the old one and powered it up. When I start up the nodes they endlessly report: VDSM
ovirt-reqa1 command failed: (-226, 'Unable to read resource owners', 'Sanlock
exception')
I tried reinstalling one of them and the error message continues. At least for now
I've restored the old config and the error is gone.

Logan

Logan, do you mind to write a testcase in ovirt.org website for the
disaster recovery test you are doing? Milan, if Logan write it, can you
please review it?
