Disaster Recovery / Replication for oVirt/RHV
DRoVirt project has been created to address the need of Disaster-Recovery process of oVirt/RHV environments. DRoVirt's main objective is to provide a simple way to replicate VMs running in an oVirt environment.
Our plan is to deliver a Python-based solution that consists of 3 components:
- Data-mover - responsible for grabbing data periodically and transferring it
- Server/API - central management point to invoke tasks
- Database - small DB to store current tasks
- CLI - utility to easier manage the replication configuration tasks
The actual implementation of the replication is subject to discussion. Initially we want to start with oVirt/RHV 4.2 Disk Image Transfer API and later add additional strategies.
DRoVirt data mover is supposed to periodically snapshot and export data from RHV/oVirt API and transfer it to a second location where increments can be restored.
- nginx & uwsgi, postgresql servers do not start after reboot
- Command Line Interface
- Non-blocking VM acquisition
