mmm, I'm not aware of a native rsync protocol for windows, how can I set this up? maybe it will solve all my issues without workarounds
>>so I'v decided to try a different approach, I want to run a script on the vm's host prior to the backup, preform the backup only if it doesn't fails, run the backup and run another script on the vm's host in the same manner as the pre.

I want to run an ssh cmd on the remote server that will mount the image locally into a folder to which I can access via rsync.
>>the main idea is to mount the image remotely, use rsync to backup and unmount the image.

I need the content of the image, hence the mount part.
