You may want to adapt it? Le 21/09/2017 =C3=A0 17:08, Bernardo Juanic=C3=B3 a =C3=A9crit :
Hi Nathanael,
You may want to take a look at this too:

Hello Victor,
I have some questions about your script
Le 07/07/2017 =C3=A0 23:40, Victor Jos=C3=A9 Acosta Dom=C3=ADnguez = a =C3=A9crit :
Hello everyone, i created a python tool to backup and restore oVirt's VMs.
Also i created a little "how to" on my blog: http://blog.infratic.com/2017/07/create-ovirtrhevs-vm-backup/ <http://blog.infratic.com/2017/07/create-ovirtrhevs-vm-backup/>
* Backup step is okay, and I get a usable qcow2 image of the snapshot vm in the backup vm. It seems to be compliant with the official backup API, except on the step 2.
1. /Take a snapshot of the virtual machine to be backed up - (existing oVirt REST API operation)/ 2. /Back up the virtual machine configuration at the time of the snapshot (the disk configuration can be backed up as well if needed) - (added capability to oVirt as part of the Backup API)= /
I can't see any vm configuration anywhere but only the qcow2 disk itself
1. /Attach the disk snapshots that were created in (1) to the virtual appliance for data backup - (added capability to oVirt as part of the Backup API)/ 2. / / 3. /Detach the disk snapshots that were attached in (4) from the virtual appliance - (added capability to oVirt as part of the Backup API)/
An other case is when the vm to backup has more than one disk. After I tested it, I found that only one qcow2 disk is saved on the backup vm. This is really a matter when the original vm has many disks part of lvm, it makes the vm restoration unusable.
* About vm restoration, it seems that you are using the upload_disk api, so the disk is uploaded to the pre-defined storage domain, so it is not a real vm restoration.
Do you plan to backup and restore a full VM (disks + vm definition) in a next release?
I hope it help someone else
Regards
Victor Acosta
