Ovm pool / repository ownership

Question

Hi,
re-posting again, as my thread was deleted.
I've got an issue with repository ownership. The process I am stuck with is:
1) Install OVM manager
2) Install OVM servers (pair)
3) Create server pool using the OVM manager, create VM and start up.
4) re-install OVM manager and try to re-take ownership of the VM.
I'm getting stuck - I've tried to re-install the ovm manager using the -u option (to present it with the old uuid of the original manager) but I still get ownership issues:
When trying to take ownership of the original repositories:
OVMAPI_A017ERepository 0004fb0000030000f25f11776afe4898: already owned by 0004fb00000100008999c8d62bbc18d6.When adding servers back into the pool:
com.oracle.odof.exception.ObjectException: Caught during invoke method: com.oracle.ovm.mgr.api.exception.RuleException: OVMRU_000039E Cannot perform operation. Server pool: test pool, is owned by another managerWe don't want to have to re-create the server pools if you have to re-create or re-install the OVM manager. There must be some way to take ownership back.
