Thanks, Strahil!
You can mount the NFS outside oVirt and backup to it
But this is only possible with OVA export, right? And not the traditional way with making a snapshot and export the VM to the export domain.
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.

We use a NFS export domain for full backups. 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!
