[ovirt-users] Live VM Backups

 From what I can tell, you can only backup a VM to an export domain if 
the VM is shut down. Is a live VM backup not possible through oVirt? If 
not, why not? Most other virtualization tools can handle this.

If it is possible, how do I do it through the backup API? 
api.vms.myvm.export requires it to be shutdown so what would the 
alternative be?

Thanks.
