Hi,

For the backup, add the --scope=all argument as follows:

engine-backup --scope=all --mode=backup --file=/root/backup

It will backup many more things than only the database.

Restore the backup on the new host, when it finishes you need to run 
engine-setup to fill any gaps from the backup and the version you just 
installed. It may run changing nothing but is required, so your commands should 
be:

engine-backup --mode=restore --file=backup --log=backup_restore.log

engine-setup

Subject: [External] : [ovirt-users] Migration of oVirt Engine and Hosts from 
CentOS 8 to CentOS 9

Dear,

I would like help with the following question: I need to migrate my oVirt 
Engine and oVirt Hosts from CentOS 8 to CentOS 9. My plan is to back up the 
database using the engine-backup command.

For example:

engine-backup --mode=backup --file=db_backup

My next step will be to install the oVirt Engine on CentOS 9 and restore the 
backup.

For example:

engine-backup --mode=restore --file=db_backup --log=backup_restore.log 
--change-db-credentials --db-host=didi-lap --db-user=engine 
--db-password=your_password --db-name=engine Finally, I will add a new oVirt 
Host with CentOS 9 and migrate the virtual machines. 

Are there any considerations I should be aware of?

Could you please guide me?
