Hi,
   In case of a total failure of the hosted engine VM, it is recommended to recreate a new one and restore a backup. I hope it works, I will probably have to do this very soon.   But is there some kind of "plug and play" features, able to rebuild configuration by browsing storage domains, if the restore process doesn't work ?   Something like identifying VMs and their snapshots in the subdirectories, and the guess what is linked to what, ... ?    I have a few machines but if I have to rebuild all the engine setup and content, I would like to be able to identify resources easily.   A few times ago, I was doing some experiments with XenServer and destroyed/recreated some setup items : I ended with a lot of oprhan resources, and it was a mess to reattach snapshots to their respective VMs. So if oVirt is more helpful in that way ...   Regards
