Re: [Users] Restoring Virtual Machines
Can I use the data of storage domain, created in the old ovirt to import virtual machines in a new ovirt? It is possible to convert the data of storage domain in export domain manually?

If you are upgrading ovirt we erased the database postgress, whether it is possible to restore the list of virtual machines without having to restore the database from the dump?

Is it possible to manage virtual machines through the cli? yes. 3. Is it possible to arrange a backup of virtual machines without interruption of its performance?

[Users] Backup virtual machines on ovirt
Hello, we are testing ovirt and RHEV in order to install both in our company instead of Vmware Vsphere. One thing we have seen, googling on Internet, there is nothing about backup virtual machines. I have seen Acronis as a backup solution but I found it too expensive for us at this moment. I'm thinking more something like ghettoVCB.sh http://communities.vmware.com/docs/DOC-8760on Vmware, a script that can connect to VCenter / Esx(i) and it's free of cost or a product with a not very expensive license. Thank you very much. Dani R. ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
[Users] migration failed
Hi.
There are 2 nodes:
10.2.20.8 and 10.1.20.7
Migrate virtual machines from 10.2.20.8 to 10.1.20.7 is successful.
But when trying to migrate from 10.2.20.8 to 10.1.20.7 error:
Migration failed due to Error: Migration destination has an invalid hostname
