Hi,All
         As the mauual, I can¡¯t find anyway to backup/restore the rhevm-VM in the hosted-engine. The I just try to backup the storage of rhevm-VM (using cp ¨Cprf  to make a copy of folder). Then I make some change and replace the origin RHEVM-VM content with my backup folder (of course I shutdown the rhevm-vm first).  At last the vm can be up,but the status is NOT health but as below:

====================
Status up-to-date                  : False
Hostname                           : 193.168.195.248
Host ID                            : 1
Engine status                      : unknown stale-data
Score                              : 2400
Local maintenance                  : False
Host timestamp                     : 1409743461
Extra metadata (valid at timestamp):
         metadata_parse_version=1
         metadata_feature_version=1
         timestamp=1409743461 (Wed Sep  3 07:24:21 2014)
         host-id=1
         score=2400
         maintenance=False
         state=EngineUp

=============================

So are there some proper way to backup the rhevm-vm?
