[ovirt-users] Re: Reimport disks

2020-02-14 Thread Christian Reiss

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.

Thank you all again for replying!

Subject: [ovirt-users] Reimport disks

Hey folks,

I created a new cluster with a new engine, everything is green and
running again (3 HCI, Gluster, this time Gluster 7.0 and CentOS7 hosts).

I do have a backup of the /images/ directory from the old installation.
I tried copying (and preserving user/ permissions) into the new images
gluster dir and trying a domain -> scan to no avail.

What is the correct way to introduce oVirt to "new" (or unknown) images?

-Chris.

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.

Create a temp storage, then detach and remove.
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.
