[ovirt-users] Engine Backup/Restore Question

Hi, Currently testing my recovery plan for HE failure. I run a hosted engine, but in the event of some failure of the engine VM i want to be able to quickly restore the engine to a standalone host running independent of Ovirt (in this case a VM running on ESXi). On a dry run I restore the

Re: [Users] engine-backup --restore

Almost, when you mean random password, you mean for the engine user in the database? The new install and the old differ in some things in the db, so I tried to made then the same, but I saw a post of a user that removed the engine database and user and created them again before trying to restore,

Re: [Users] engine-backup --restore

OK, that did work. I droped the database and created it back and also changed the password for the engine user. That did the trick. I now have to figure out why the web is blank, but at least is a step forward. Regards, On 12/02/14 16:03, Yedidyah Bar David wrote: - Original Message -

Re: [Users] engine-backup --restore

Well, too soon to say boodbye. Thought I used --change-db-credentials in the restore, the engine seems to be unable to connect to the database. I assume that it didn't get the new password, so, is there a way to tell the engine about the new password? Regards, On 12/02/14 16:03, Yedidyah Bar

I was having the same issue (and posted about it today, with full steps). I'd reply to my current post to list but I don't seem to receive my own posts. I have since taken these steps (as root) $ su - postgres -c dropdb engine $ su - postgres -c psql -c \create user engine password 'PASSWORD'\

[Users] engine-backup restore how to

There doesn't seem to be any solid documentation on how to use the engine-backup restore function, and I'm not able to restore a backup. The best I've come up with is: 1. Install engine on new host 2. Stop engine 3. run engine-backup --mode=restore --file=filename --log=logfile Fail. Log shows:
