Hi everyone, I'm quite confusing regarding Incremental backups support in 4.3. Could you please clarify it for me. The REST API contains a /backups link in links section of a VM, also the UI allows to enable incremental backup for a disk. However, the /backups returns empty result for any VM. It looks like it is a stump for future development, is that correct? Thanks in advance.

Hi Eyal, thanks a lot for you answer. Could you please clarify one more thing: is it safe for us, as developers of a loosely related product, to assume the currently described design for the incremental backup is stable enough? In other words, can we start developing incremental backup support in our product relying on the oVirt's Incremental Backup published design documents and hope there will not be any drastic changes? If there are any estimate time of when the feature will become available, that would be much appreciated!

Thanks again. P.S. Sorry for my duplicated first message, I didn't realize there is a delay before it becomes visible in the list. Regards, Anton.
