ovirt-engine-3.3 introduces formal utility for backup/restore, engine-backup. This utility should be used as an interface for users to perform all backup/restore activities. There is a requirement to restore previous version database into current version. If that requirement is valid, the engine-backup utility should support that mode of operation. One problem is that the legacy backup file contains database creation commands, while in engine-3.3 we expect to restore into existing database. First we should understand why restoring previous minor backup is required, for that we need PM.
Hello Andrew, Is there a requirement to restore 3.2 backup into 3.3 environment? Won't it better to install 3.2, restore database and then upgrade? Thanks, Alon
