Hi all,
I 'd like to receive any usefull advices from the community about good
practice of backing up ovirt with the restraint of zero down time.
This involves :
* saving vms without shutting down (Restoring them can be done with a
halt). Is live snapshot enough for this? Is lvm or san snapshot
recommended?
* saving the postgres database (or only some of main tables). Can we
do it without stopping engine and the risk of a data corruption? Is
there a howto?
Thank you for your help.
