Merge two datacenters (storage migration)
Hello.
This is RHEV 3.2 environment.
The task is to merge DC1 and DC2 into one DC. I know that supported and documented method is to use export domain.
However I am wondering of other method which could go like this:
- Create fc storage pool (SP1) for DC1
- Move all VMs to SP1
- Shutdown all DC1 hosts.
- Destroy DC1
- Add DC1 hosts to DC2
- Present SP1 luns to DC2 hosts
Would it work? How would RHEV-M behave if it saw luns with the correct lvm structures with data on it ?
Thank you for any suggestions
