You can mount the NFS outside oVirt and backup to it Also, you can use pacemaker (if the NFS is a linux server) to ensure that failover is immediate and with NFS v3 the recovery of the clients should be fast enough to avoid troubles.

Sometimes I have to restart the NFS file server, but when I just restart that server, without doing anything in oVirt (I guess normally I should put the domain in maintenance mode), it can happen that hosts and VMs a crashing. I had one time even the issue, that after a crash one XFS file system on one host got damage and I had to fix that. My though was now, because I make only one time a week a VM full backup, I only mount the export domain in this time. Is there an easy way to do this, with the API? Or would you have a other hint, how to solve this issue? Have a good day!
