[Users] backups

How are you folks doing your hypervisor level backups? Under ESXi I used GhettoVCB which basically took a snap shot, copied the disk image to another location, then deleted the snap. I haven't been able to find too much information on how this can be done with ovirt. I see discussions on the new backup API, but I'm not interested in spending big bucks on an enterprise backup solution for a home lab. Only discussion I saw on using snapshots for backups said don't do it because the tools don't sync memory when the snapshots are taken.
