Maybe I overlooked the information, but in recent RHVE 4.3 docs the information how to use the export storage domain have been removed and there is no alternative to do so, but to detach a data domain and attach it somewhere else. But how can I move my VMs one by one to a new storage domain on a different datacenter without completely detaching the original storage domain?
I was under the impression that you just needed a regular (second) data domain in lieu of the (deprecated) export domain. So you attach a new data domain, then migrate the VM over to it, then you can detach the data domain and attach it to another datacenter.
I don't want to bring down all of my VMs on the old storage domain for import. I want to export and import them one by one. When all VMs are moved to the new data center only then I want to decommission the old data center.
What is the rationale to deprecate the export storage and already remove documentation when there seems to be no alternative available?
IANAD, but I believe the rationale was that there was no need for a "special case" domain. -derek -- Derek Atkins 617-623-3745 derek@ihtfp.com www.ihtfp.com Computer and Internet Security Consultant
