Backup is not supported by the host, Ovirt 4.4 Beta
Hi all, I'm trying to experiment with incremental backup using the example script provided on sdk git page (https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/master/sdk/examples/backup_vm...). I installed a fresh engine on a CentOS 8 VM and installed a fresh node on CentOS 8 as well, connected to the engine without any problems. All libvirt packages version 5.6 and ovirt-imageio-common version 2.0.3 . Passing all the needed args to the script (I hardcoded connections var like user and password) it throws the following error: ``` [root@centos8 ~]# python3 backup_vm.py full --engine-url https://ovirt-engine-fqdn.com --username admin@internal --password-file ./passwd --backup-dir /home 11d70eb0-4d7c-4308-82a6-470e21d80ecd [ 0.0 ] Starting full backup for vm 11d70eb0-4d7c-4308-82a6-470e21d80ecd Traceback (most recent call last): File "backup_vm.py", line 397, in <module> main() File "backup_vm.py", line 141, in main args.command(args) File "backup_vm.py", line 154, in cmd_full backup = start_backup(connection, args) File "backup_vm.py", line 247, in start_backup disks=disks File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/services.py", line 33583, in add return self._internal_add(backup, headers, query, wait) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 232, in _internal_add return future.wait() if wait else future File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 55, in wait return self._code(response) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 229, in callback self._check_fault(response) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 132, in _check_fault self._raise_error(response, body) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 118, in _raise_error raise error ovirtsdk4.Error: Fault reason is "Operation Failed".

Hi Francesco, It is great to hear that you are trying the new incremental backup feature. First, please note that in this stage we implemented only the support for full VM backup. In order to use it, you need libvirt version 6.0 at least. Please try to use it with the following version and share the results. On Mon, 20 Apr 2020 at 14:49, <francesco@shellrent.com> wrote:

Hi Nil, my colleague Francesco and I are very interested in incremental backups. Is there an estimate of the release date of the feature? Can we somehow collaborate with you to speed up its development? Il 20/04/20 21:15, Nir Soffer ha scritto:

Hi Tommaso, Thank you very much, it is really appreciated. Currently, the incremental backup feature is in its final stage of development. We have a few issues in the underline layers (libvirt \ QEMU) that prevent us from preforming some flows but we expect them to solve in the first RHEL 8.2 Z-stream. The first stage of incremental backup for a running VM will be available in oVirt 4.4 GA as a tech-preview. You will be able to perform an incremental backup for a running VM (when the VM will go down you will need to take a full backup again). All the API is already implemented so you will be able to start and build your backup solution. Here is a short demo of the first incremental backup in oVirt - https://youtu.be/CWKqapnvntg Thanks, On Thu, 23 Apr 2020 at 11:39, Tommaso - Shellrent <tommaso@shellrent.com> wrote:
