Well, I must end this question with my "solution" of the problem. As some of my WMs didn’t start after a "yum update" with strange errors in the logs I did as follow, as my prime goal was to reuse the disk images. 1. In DB-table "vm-static" I search out the key "vm-guid" for the virtual machine 2. in DB-table "vm-device" I match my "vm-guid-ID" against field "vm-Id" and row "disk" in the field "device". From that I got the disk-ID for that WM. 3. After that I got to my NFS-storage and rsynced the disk image and the META-file to a backup folder. 4. I check that it was possible to mount the image with kpartx 5. Then I just erased the WM from ovirt and checked that everything went away. 6. A new machine with a new disk (equal size as the old one) was created 7. I copied the name of the new created disk-image including the META-file and then deleted it. 8. After that I copied the old disk image to the right storage pool on the NFS-server and renamed it with the earlier copied name. 9. Finally I start the newly created VM with the old disk and everything went up. //Ricky
