oVirt Open Source Backup solution?

Is there a good low to no-cost solution to backup oVirt and the virtual machines? I've been unabel to find something that will do a direct VM backup instead of a backup agent installed on VM

vProtect is not open source but if you have 10 VMs or less the license is free. It's an enterprise grade backup solution that can backup oVirt/RHEV VMs (including incremental backups), also handles restores (can mount on the backup machine or restore to a new VM directly to oVirt), snapshot management and a bunch of other things. I've been demoing it for the past several months to backup my oVirt 4.3 VMs and it has been working great. On Wed, May 8, 2019 at 7:10 PM <michael@wanderingmad.com> wrote:

I've seen that, but i'm in that horrible pro-sumer category where it's really just me, but i've got 20-40 VMs / containers running, plus terabytes of data and 5 hosts (2 hyper-v, 3 ovirt)
