Looking at oVirt ansible roles, I wonder if it would be easy to implement
VM backups using the ovirt-snapshot-module to create a VM snapshot and
download it.

The biggest problem with these tools is that they are very inefficient.
To work they snapshot the VM then clone the snapshot into a new VM, back it
up then delete. This takes a lot of space and time.
vProtect and some other enterprise backup software snapshot the VM and
stream the snapshot from the API without needing to clone or using a proxy
VM.
At the same time, this workflow is the one recommended by the ovirt team (
https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/backup-...).
If it is no effecient enough, ovirt team should update the process and
advice users of a better practice for vm backup in current/future ovirt
4.3/4.4.
The new version of vProtect even bypasses the API (because it's slow) and
now supports streaming over SSH directly from the host. This is the ideal
solution for oVirt VM backups imo, but I don't know if any free tool exists
that can offer the same functionality.
