This will be a tech-preview in 4.4 due to the fact it is still a tech-preview in qemu and Libvirt.

Is this feature official in ovirt 4.4 or is it a preview tech?
I haven't read any annoucement or any release note about such a great feature...

Hello,
going to test incremental backup in 4.4.
Is this page the updated one to use:

This page contains a lot of data about the feature and includes must of the APIs but it still needs some updates.

There is currently no up-to-date documentation but we are working on it.
Please share your inputs when you have some insights.

You can have a look at the session we did on the DevConf 2020 conference [1]

Also, please note that in order to use the incremental backup feature you must set  'IsIncrementalBackupSupported'
to 'true' in the Engine database and restart the engine before taking a backup - 

engine-config -s "IsIncrementalBackupSupported=true"
 

 
?
Is there already any ansible module/role ongoing to support it?

There is no Ansible implementation for it but we provide a python SDK 
script for backup a VM using incremental backup new API [2]


 

Thanks,
Gianluca

Thank you very much for your insights, Eyal.
In the mean time I enabled the feature in the engine and I'm going to watch and read the resources you provided.
