<div>Hello everyone,
i created a python

<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>
