Good backup products for ovirt seem hard to come by. If you want to backup 10 or less vms I’d recommend vprotect as it’s free. It works great but it’s costly for a license above 10 vms. On Sun, Jan 19, 2020 at 5:08 AM Nazan CENGİZ <nazancengiz@havelsan.com.tr> wrote:

Hi Nazan,there is a ovirt HostedEngine backup tool , for everything else you have to use external products or your own scripts. Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov В неделя, 19 януари 2020 г., 13:01:00 ч.

I am still using https://github.com/wefixit-AT/oVirtBackup but since support for the v3 API will be removed with oVirt 4.4 it will stop working with this release. For this reason I can no longer recommend it but it served me well the past few years. There is also https://github.com/jb-alvarado/ovirt-vm-backup which has similar functionality but I have yet no first-hand experience with this. Hope this helps.

The biggest problem with these tools is that they are very inefficient. To work they snapshot the VM then clone the snapshot into a new VM, back it up then delete. This takes a lot of space and time. vProtect and some other enterprise backup software snapshot the VM and stream the snapshot from the API without needing to clone or using a proxy VM. The new version of vProtect even bypasses the API (because it's slow) and now supports streaming over SSH directly from the host. This is the ideal solution for oVirt VM backups imo, but I don't know if any free tool exists that can offer the same functionality.

That's what VEPA Backup is also doing and is widely used in the Enterprise.It depends of the type of storage you use. For example , file-based storage (NFS, Gluster) is easy - you can just copy the snapshot and then delete. Yet , for block-based storage the only working solution I have seen to be working properly is the snapshot (VEPA backup) or it's clone to be presented to a VM for accessing it.I don't know about this vProtect , but ssh cannot be faster than a tar over a tape or other media. Of course, storage-based snapshots are the fastest , but they also require space. Best Regards,Strahil Nikolov В неделя, 19 януари 2020 г., 19:40:05 ч.

Well there is also https://github.com/vacosta94/VirtBKP (See http://blog.infratic.com/create-ovirtrhevs-vm-backup/) which is taking an image based approach which I assume might be faster. Again, I have not tried it myself. I personally prefer to have an easy to restore VM on the export storage to restore from, so I stick to the tools mentioned before. But yes, the process takes a lot of space and time and your mileage may vary. On 19.01.2020 19:11, Strahil Nikolov wrote:

So far for me - vProtect has been the easiest and most seamless to use, along with having some other handy 'included' features (like the application backup) and having a central server with remote nodes so you can have one management server for multiple DC / Cluster environments. Still uses snapshots and whatnot but does decent job at incremental and once oVirt supports CBT im sure vProtect will jump straight on it for better incremental with consolidation etc akin to big enterprise backup like Veeam.

Looking at oVirt ansible roles, I wonder if it would be easy to implement VM backups using the ovirt-snapshot-module to create a VM snapshot and download it. On Mon, Jan 20, 2020 at 5:04 AM Nathanaël Blanchet <blanchet@abes.fr> wrote:

If it is no effecient enough, ovirt team should update the process and advice users of a better practice for vm backup in current/future ovirt 4.3/4.4.
The new version of vProtect even bypasses the API (because it's slow) and now supports streaming over SSH directly from the host. This is the ideal solution for oVirt VM backups imo, but I don't know if any free tool exists that can offer the same functionality.

I am still using https://github.com/wefixit-AT/oVirtBackup but since support for the v3 API will be removed with oVirt 4.4 it will stop working with this release. For this reason I can no longer recommend it but it served me well the past few years.
There is also https://github.com/jb-alvarado/ovirt-vm-backup which has similar functionality but I have yet no first-hand experience with this.
Hope this helps.

Hi all,
I want to back up Ovirt for free. Is there a script, project or tool that you can recommend for this?
Is there a project that you can test, both backup and restore process can work properly?
Best Regards,
Nazan.
