Urgent: Missing (ovmm_)mysql binaries, please help

Question

Owing to a mistake (understatement of the year) on my part I've managed to blow away all of the mysql binaries in /usr/bin.  I imagine they all came with the MySQL installed with Oracle VM.  Does anyone know the best way to replace the following:
/usr/bin/msql2mysql
/usr/bin/my_print_defaults
/usr/bin/myisam_ftdump
/usr/bin/myisamchk
/usr/bin/myisamlog
/usr/bin/myisampack
/usr/bin/mysql
/usr/bin/mysql_config
/usr/bin/mysql_convert_table_format
/usr/bin/mysql_find_rows
/usr/bin/mysql_fix_extensions
/usr/bin/mysql_install_db
/usr/bin/mysql_plugin
/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation
/usr/bin/mysql_tzinfo_to_sql
/usr/bin/mysql_upgrade
/usr/bin/mysql_waitpid
/usr/bin/mysql_zap
/usr/bin/mysqlaccess
/usr/bin/mysqlaccess.conf
/usr/bin/mysqladmin
/usr/bin/mysqlbinlog
/usr/bin/mysqlbug
/usr/bin/mysqlcheck
/usr/bin/mysqld_multi
/usr/bin/mysqld_safe
/usr/bin/mysqldump
/usr/bin/mysqldumpslow
/usr/bin/mysqlhotcopy
/usr/bin/mysqlimport
/usr/bin/mysqlshow
/usr/bin/mysqlslap
/usr/bin/mysqltest
I would be incredibly grateful for any help.  Or even a tarball of the files from your own installation.  I'm running Oracle VM Manager 3.2.8.733.
With very grateful thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben,
sure thing… just remember to add your ssh-key to the list of authorized ovmm keys in the oracle user folder, to ease things up. Otherwise you might be presented with a re-appearing password dialog for each vdisk…
This is the script to save the vdisk names to a text file for later re-import:
#!/bin/bash
OVMM="ip.of.ovmm.host"
Repository="$1"
outputFile="$2"
declare -A virtualDisks
if [ -z "$Repository" ]; then
    echo "Usage: saveVdiskNames.sh repository [outputfile]"
    echo "No repository given... aborting!"
    exit 0
fi
if [ -z "$outputFile" ]; then
    outputFile="$Repository""_vdisks.txt"
fi
rm -f $outputFile
# get all vdisks from a repository and iterate through the list to get their resp. names, if available
for vdiskID in `ssh -l admin -p 10000 $OVMM "show Repository name=$Repository" | grep VirtualDisk | grep "\[" | awk '{print $5}'`;
do
    vdiskName=`ssh -l admin -p 10000 $OVMM "show VirtualDisk id=$vdiskID" | grep Name | awk '{print $4}'`
    echo "vdiskID: $vdiskID, vdiskName: $vdiskName"
    # checking whether there is a double assignment of vdisk names
    checkVdiskName=${virtualDisks[$vdiskName]}
    if [ -n "$checkVdiskName" ]; then
        echo "Double vdisk name detected!!! - Prefixing name..."
        vdiskName=`echo -n "doubleName $vdiskName"`
    fi
    echo "$vdiskID,$vdiskName" >> $outputFile
    virtualDisks+=([$vdiskName]=$vdiskID)
done
### enf of script
Note, that there is a check for double names involved, where the 2nd vdisk name wil be prefixed "doubleName "+current vdisk name, if encountered.
Next up is the companion, that will apply the saved vdisk names on the uuid vdisks in the database, after a catastrophic OVMM rediscovery:
#!/bin/bash
OVMM="ip.of.ovmm.host"
Repository="$1"
outputFile="$2"
declare -A virtualDisks
if [ -z "$Repository" ]; then
    echo "Usage: saveVdiskNames.sh repository [outputfile]"
    echo "No repository given... aborting!"
    exit 0
fi
if [ -z "$outputFile" ]; then
    outputFile="$Repository""_vdisks.txt"
fi
rm -f $outputFile
# get all vdisks from a repository and iterate through the list to get their resp. names, if available
for vdiskID in `ssh -l admin -p 10000 $OVMM "show Repository name=$Repository" | grep VirtualDisk | grep "\[" | awk '{print $5}'`;
do
    vdiskName=`ssh -l admin -p 10000 $OVMM "show VirtualDisk id=$vdiskID" | grep Name | awk '{print $4}'`
    echo "vdiskID: $vdiskID, vdiskName: $vdiskName"
    # checking whether there is a double assignment of vdisk names
    checkVdiskName=${virtualDisks[$vdiskName]}
    if [ -n "$checkVdiskName" ]; then
        echo "Double vdisk name detected!!! - Prefixing name..."
        vdiskName=`echo -n "doubleName $vdiskName"`
    fi
    echo "$vdiskID,$vdiskName" >> $outputFile
    virtualDisks+=([$vdiskName]=$vdiskID)
done
No magic involved here… It's straight forward use of OVM's cli feature.
