Hi, Ryan
Thanks for replying. I know your meaning and engine-backup command.
But I have some questions with your way: “If the hosted-engine needs to be
restored for some reason I will just recreate the OS and restore the engine
database”.
Do you recreate the Guest using original host? And the host needn’t to be
fresh installed and just excute hosted-engine �Cdeployed again, we can
recreate another OS?

In 3.4 there is a backup/restore utility called engine-backup. You can use
this to backup the RHEV-M database(s) as well as restore. Of course this won’t
backup the Guest OS itself.
My DR strategy is to simply copy off these engine-backup files to another
location. If the hosted-engine needs to be restored for some reason I will
just recreate the OS and restore the engine database.

Subject: [ovirt-users] How to backup/restore the rhevm-VM in hosted-engine ?
Hi,All
As the mauual, I can’t find anyway to backup/restore the rhevm-VM in
the hosted-engine. The I just try to backup the storage of rhevm-VM (using cp
�Cprf to make a copy of folder). Then I make some change and replace the
origin RHEVM-VM content with my backup folder (of course I shutdown the
rhevm-vm first). At last the vm can be up,but the status is NOT health but as
below:
====================
Status up-to-date : False
Hostname : 193.168.195.248
Host ID : 1
Engine status : unknown stale-data
Score : 2400
Local maintenance : False
Host timestamp : 1409743461
Extra metadata (valid at timestamp):
metadata_parse_version=1
metadata_feature_version=1
timestamp=1409743461 (Wed Sep 3 07:24:21 2014)
host-id=1
score=2400
maintenance=False
state=EngineUp
=============================
So are there some proper way to backup the rhevm-vm?
