[ovirt-users] Re: Reimport disks
Hey folks, thank you all for your replies. Turns out that in my use case creating a gluster volume manually, moving the DC folder back into gluster and importing the domain in oVirt Engine did the trick. The followed importing of the VMs was a bliss and really worked streamlined. I am truly baffled and amazed. I found my backup & disaster recovery option.

Import domain will work. The VM metadata is available on the OVF_STORE container, inside the domain. So even the names and settings come back. Them you gradually start moving the VMs to the Gluster storage.

Manually copy the backup to the same directory . Attach again the storage domain and there should be a 'Import VMs' & ' Import templates' tabs in that domain. Then you just need to select VM, pick a cluster and import.
