[ovirt-users] oVirt VM backup and restore

[Beckman, Daniel]

We’re been using oVirtBackup with our oVirt 4.0.5 environment and it’s worked well. It’s not the most efficient ( first creates a snapshot, then clone, then backup) but we can live with it.

Has anyone tested oVirtBackup with oVirt 4.1? Does it still work? I want to know before we upgrade. I’d like to eventually use the new v4 API but I haven’t seen a lot of documentation on how it works in practice.

Thanks,
Daniel

Hello,

  *   With ovirt <= 4.1 and ovirtsdk3 : https://github.com/wefixit-AT/oVirtBackup

This workflow works fine but will be soon deprecated.

  *   With ovirt > 4.0, jhernandez has recently posted a new python script based on the new v4 API : https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine-sdk/blob/master/sdk/examples/vm_backup.py

I personnally didn't try it, maybe someone could give a feedback.

Dears Engineers,
I hope you are doing great,
I wish you can help me with a tutorial that shows how to take a scheduled backups for virtual machines running on oVirt node 4 and how to restore them.
Best regards
