[Users] error using cli on ovirt 3.1

Wed Feb 6 14:02:31 UTC 2013

as things stand now:

I manually reinstalled 3.1, then dropped the engine database and restored
from the backup. There were some errors at the end. Even though I used all
the same passwords, the admin at internal account was not working. Used
engine-config -s LocalAdminPassword='*****' to fix. On log in, everything
is down, offline, unreachable. No hosts can be contacted. No storage is
connected. Can't add a new host.

crud.

I copied the database backup and removed all the db creation part leaving
just the data "copy into..." section (that was fun). Ran engine-cleanup
then engine-setup then tried to restore just the data.

no joy there either.

The system is CentOS 6.3 as are the hosts. This ran wonderfully until I
goofed trying to get the cli and sdk updated. Without the database working,
I have no way to know what vm is what in the ISCSI LVM storage system to
even export to another platform.

So I'm assuming my next step is panic (or total reinstall from bare iron?).
I'm setting this up at work and today is my last day as I'm moving to a new
job at a totally different organization. I'd hate to walk out and lose all
the windows VMs and templates that were built over the last 2 months.
