[ovirt-users] Re: Bcp vm
Exporting ova can be a decent backup method depending on environment. It
can be resource intensive and you can’t do incremental backups.
For an enterprise grade backup solution look into vprotect.
For more simple backup operations I wrote this ansible playbook a while
back to automate backing up vm ova images to an nfs mount using ansible.
I’ve been using it myself for several years and it has worked well for my
use case:

Hello experts.
Environment:
2 identical servers running
CentOS Linux release 7.7.1908
oVirt Version:4.3.7.2-1.el7
No clusters configured.
NFS share for backups on third server.
Have some questions.
1. Need to create backups of virtual machines to NFS without downtime. Can
an 'OVA export' be a complete policy for backups?
2. Is there a way to export vm to OVA via command line?
