Please keep posted.
Just the first steps. I enabled in engine the incremental backup feature and restarted engine service. Created a CentOS 8.1 VM to backup, and updated it. It has one qcow2 disk with flag of incremental backup enabled. I configured another server to be sort of backup server. Installed CentOS 8.1 + updates, then dnf install https://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release44.rpm dnf update dnf install python3-ovirt-engine-sdk4 dnf install ovirt-imageio-client Copied backup_vm.py from the examples directory to the /root and tried a full backup [root@c8-bck-server ~]# ./backup_vm.py full --engine-url https://ovirteng.mydomain --username admin@internal -c ca.pem --backup-dir /backup 80fd995d-63c7-4f2a-a4c2-0ddaf1a8389d [ 0.0 ] Starting full backup for VM 80fd995d-63c7-4f2a-a4c2-0ddaf1a8389d Password: Traceback (most recent call last): File "./backup_vm.py", line 490, in <module> main() File "./backup_vm.py", line 181, in main args.command(args) File "./backup_vm.py", line 195, in cmd_full backup = start_backup(connection, args) File "./backup_vm.py", line 312, in start_backup from_checkpoint_id=args.from_checkpoint_uuid File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/services.py", line 33584, in add return self._internal_add(backup, headers, query, wait) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 232, in _internal_add return future.wait() if wait else future File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 55, in wait return self._code(response) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 229, in callback self._check_fault(response) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 132, in _check_fault self._raise_error(response, body) File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/ovirtsdk4/service.py", line 118, in _raise_error raise error ovirtsdk4.Error: Fault reason is "Operation Failed".
