Hi list,
I want to *schedule a VM backup* in ovirt 3.5. I read below URL.
<
http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release35.rpm>
http://www.ovirt.org/Features/Backup-Restore_API_Integration#Full_VM_Backups
It gives an below example of VM backup
Example for VM Backup
- Use existing VM Snapshot/Create a vm snapshot (example):
URL = SERVER:PORT/api/vms/VM_ID/snapshots
Method = POST
(with Content-Type:application/xml header)
Body =
<snapshot>
<description>Virtual Machine 1 - Snapshot For Backup</description>
</snapshot>
But, How can I find the *VM_ID* of the VM that I want to backup?
How can I write this below format?
URL = SERVER:PORT/api/vms/VM_ID/snapshots
MY Ovirt Engine manager is running on another PC. (let's say
engine.example.com ) i can access it by typing
https://engine.example.com/
is it
https://engine.example.com/api/vms/*VM_ID*/snapshots ? I can't
access it in firefox browser?
Should I write a script? is there any Youtube video or doc that makes
me to understand this?
Hope to hear from you.
