<p>Hi Bernardo,</p>
<p>Thanks, I knew this tool, but it is based on sdk3 which will be
removed in the next version 4.2, so I'm looking at sdk4 project. <br>
</p>
<p>You may want to adapt it?<br>

<div>Hello everyone, i created a python tool to
backup and restore oVirt's VMs.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also i created a little "how to" on my blog:</div>

<ul>
<li>Backup step is okay, and I get a usable qcow2
image of the snapshot vm in the backup vm. It seems
to be compliant with the official backup API, except
on the step 2.</li>
</ul>
<ol>
<li><i>Take a snapshot of the virtual machine to be
backed up - (existing oVirt REST API operation)</i></li>
<li><i>Back up the virtual machine configuration at
the time of the snapshot (the disk configuration
can be backed up as well if needed) - (added
capability to oVirt as part of the Backup API)</i></li>
</ol>
<p><font color="#ff0000">I can't see any vm
configuration anywhere but only the qcow2 disk
itself</font></p>
<ol>
<li><i>Attach the disk snapshots that were created in
(1) to the virtual appliance for data backup -
(added capability to oVirt as part of the Backup
API)</i></li>
<li> <i><br>
</i></li>
<li><i>Detach the disk snapshots that were attached in
(4) from the virtual appliance - (added capability
to oVirt as part of the Backup API)</i></li>
</ol>
<p>An other case is when the vm to backup has more than
one disk. After I tested it, I found that only one
qcow2 disk is saved on the backup vm. This is really a
matter when the original vm has many disks part of
lvm, it makes the vm restoration unusable.<br>
</p>
<ul>
<li>About vm restoration, it seems that you are using
the upload_disk api, so the disk is uploaded to the
pre-defined storage domain, so it is not a real vm
restoration. <br>
</li>
</ul>
<p>Do you plan to backup and restore a full VM (disks +
vm definition) in a next release?<br>
