All the ovirt-engine-* packages can be safely deleted, they are not used by hypervisors. There are a lot of other packages that can be removed that are dependencies of ovirt-engine, like httpd, jboss-as and java-1.7.0-openjdk, and many of the dependencies that they bring, so a good way to start that cleanup is this: yum remove 'ovirt-engine-*' 'httpd' 'java-1.7.0-openjdk' 'jboss-as' That will remove more than 300 packages, as it will transitively include all the Java packages. If you want to do further cleanups you can take a look at the package-cleanup tool, but be careful or you may end up with an useless system. * Is the right way the one I've used to recreate the database? ** Origin pg_dump -U postgres engine | gzip engine_db.gz ** Destination pg_dump -U postgres -s -f tempdb.dump engine dropdb -U postgres engine createdb -U postgres engine zcat engine_db.gz | psql -U postgres engine The default installation of ovirt-engine creates the engine database owned by the engine user, but you are creating it owned by postgres instead.

Re: [Users] Help on an almost migrated ovirt-engine
I've updated the howto with your instructions. I prefer the most standard oVirt instructions. If there are backup and restore scripts it's because of there's a good reason. In my oVirt 3.1 installation backup.sh didn't seem to have an -f option so I've done it just with the default filename. I've also made a reference to oVirt 3.2 -f option.
