Thank you for your reply Itamar.
you can export a VM to an NFS export domain, then back it up.
you can stop the VM and backup the data from NFS/Block directly.
Ok, am I am guessing that for automated backups I should be able to=20
script this using vdsClient?
in 3.1, you should be able to live snapshot, then backup the
snapshot=20
from storage
Unfortunately I've not had success with the live snapshots. My message=20
with subject "oVirt live snapshot problem" to users(a)ovirt.org provides=20
more information about the problem.
How would one go about backing up the snapshot from storage?

<br
I am looking for a

I've tried the popular script by
Daniel

Berteaud
'virt-backup.pl' which works very well for our

I had to disable libvirtd's SASL

authentication which
caused oVirt to lose connectivity to
the node
<br
and oVirt to fence the
node.
<br
I thought I'd try a
manual 'virsh save' but that causes
oVirt to
<br
believe that the guest
has gone down which causes the guest
to be
<br
automatically migrated
(I am running 2 nodes).
<br
<br
What experience have you had with backing up
guests? I am
not sure if

Acronis is the best way
forward?
