[ovirt-users] Copying VM from one datacenter to another

2014-04-29 Thread Gabi C
Hello!




De facto; I have two datacenter:

- 1 with one host, configured with local storage, just added in the engine;
- 1 with 3 host, 2 shared storage domain, 1 ISO and 1 Export

For some backup reasons ( cold backup) I want to copy machines from second
Datacenter to the Local-storage one.

Is there some documented way of doing this?
Any hints, thoughts, similar experience?

Thanks!

Hi,

AFAIK the way to copy a vm from one DC to another is:

1. Export vm to export domain
2. deactivate + detach export domain from source DC
3. attach and activate export domain to target dc
4. import the vm

Hello!

I was thinking about this one to, but detaching export from source DC
wouldn't bring DC down?

Thanks!

It shouldn't - that is the whole point of an export domain - do be able to move 
it between DCs

it should not, but ymmv :)
if it does, you should write a BZ for it.

as always: test in a test env first :)
