Eli,<br>I am following the procedure for DB backup/restore from<br>here: <a href="http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Backup_engine_db">http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/Backup_engine_db</a><br>and<br>here: <a href="http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.0/html/Administration_Guide/Administration_Guide-Backing_Up.html#Administration_Guide-BU_Database">http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Virtualization/3.0/html/Administration_Guide/Administration_Guide-Backing_Up.html#Administration_Guide-BU_Database</a><br>
(Which the RHEV proceadure BTW has a syntax error):<br>&quot;psql -U postgres -d rhevm -W -f /usr/share/rhevm/db-backups/dump_RHEVDB_BACKUP_`date &quot;+%Y%m%d_%R&quot;`.sql&quot;<br>should be:<br>psql -U postgres  -W -f /usr/share/rhevm/db-backups/dump_RHEVDB_BACKUP_`date &quot;+%Y%m%d_%R&quot;`.sql<br>
<br>Either of the above procedures worked with nightly builds up until about a month back. I was able to backup a 3.0 database and restore it per the above on a system running the nightly build, then run the upgrade.sh script located in /usr/share/ovirt-engine/dbscripts. There is no script in /usr/share/ovirt-engine/dbscripts called &quot;upgrade_db.sh&quot; I always ran upgrade.sh -u postgres and it worked fine.<br>
<br>I am not using create_db.sh script in /usr/share/ovirt-engine/dbscirpts to create the database and objects. The createdb command I use is the standard postgres command to create an new empty database. (/bin/createdb&quot;). Thus what imports is actually a clean restore of the 3.0 database<br>
<br>Similarly I am using &quot;/bin/dropdb&quot; to destroy/delete the engine database.<br><br>Thus importing the dump from 3.0 works using those procedures but results in the previous error I noted when attempting to run &quot;/usr/share/ovirt-engine/dbscripts/upgrade.sh&quot;.<br>

Subject: [Users] ovirt-engine upgrade 3.0 to 3.1 issue<br>
<br>
<br>
Steps taken:<br>
<br>
Load up bare metal or a VM with FC16<br>
Install 3.0 from <a href="http://www.ovirt.org/releases/stable/fedora/16/" target="_blank">http://www.ovirt.org/releases/<u></u>stable/fedora/16/</a><br>
Setup up something minimal (EG: engine-setup then setup a basic<br>
datacenter/cluster/etc)<br>
Add a FC16 or EL based node for fun as well and some VM&#39;s if<br>
feeling<br>
ambitious.<br>
<br>
Back up database:<br>
systemctl stop jboss-as.service<br>
pg_dump -C -E UTF8 --column-inserts --disable-dollar-quoting<br>
--disable-triggers -U postgres --format=p -f &quot;/temp/engine.sql&quot;<br>
engine<br>
<br>
Back up the following files within /etc/pki/ovirt-engine from a 3.0<br>
install (preserve owner/group).<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/cacert.<u></u>conf<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/cert.<u></u>conf<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/<u></u>01.pem<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/<u></u>02.pem<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/<u></u>ca.der<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/<u></u>engine.cer<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/certs/<u></u>engine.der<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/<u></u>database.txt<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/<u></u>database.txt.attr<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/<u></u>database.txt.attr.old<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/<u></u>database.txt.old<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/<u></u>engine_id_rsa<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/keys/<u></u>engine.ssh.key.txt<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/private/<u></u>ca.pem<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/<u></u>requests/ca.csr<br>
/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/<u></u>requests/engine.req<br>
<br>
Load up bare metal or a VM with FC17 (Upgrade from FC16 --&gt; FC17 is<br>
still rather messy)<br>
Install 3.1 from <a href="http://www.ovirt.org/releases/beta/fedora/17/" target="_blank">http://www.ovirt.org/releases/<u></u>beta/fedora/17/</a><br>
<br>
Run engine-setup to get an initial setup.<br>
stop ovirt-engine (systemctl stop ovirt-engine.service)<br>
<br>
Copy the previously backed up /etc/pki/ovirt-engine files from<br>
above<br>
over top of the ones just generated (be sure to preserve<br>
owner/group<br>
EG: cp -a)<br>
<br>
Drop the existing engine database: dropdb -U postgres engine<br>
Create a new blank database: createdb -U postgres engine<br>
</blockquote></blockquote>
Well, the problem is that you are creating here the database with createdb.<br>
This creates all DB objects and runs all upgrade scripts.<br>
Then when you try to restore from your file , you have problems, since<br>
your file also tries to create the same objects.<br>
instead of : createdb -U postgres engine<br>
do :<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
echo &quot;create database engine;&quot; | psql -U postgres template1<br>
</blockquote>
Then continue on the next steps and it will work.<br>
<br>
optionally, in your backup command:<br>
instead of<br>
pg_dump -C -E UTF8 --column-inserts --disable-dollar-quoting<br>
use<br>
pg_dump --data-only -E UTF8 --column-inserts --disable-dollar-quoting<br>
<br>
then , createdb will create the db &amp; schema and your engine.sql will include only &quot;insert&quot;<br>
<br>

</blockquote></div></div>
I am anything but a PG expert but exporting only the data then inserting it on top of the upgrade scheme is a really dumb idea.  It might work today if the scheme doesn&#39;t change much but it could really breaks things tomorrow if the scheme sees a massive change. You were correct Just create the database restore then run the upgrade scheme.<br>

this should be the cleanest way to upgrade from 3.0 to 3.1.<br>
