Hi No point changing rsync to pve backup in my oppinion if you are backing up data only. Only if you are using Windows or you want to backup VM conf. Then i would suggest ticking "no backup" flag on hdd and you're good. Or you could back up whole etc/pve directory.
Good thing is though you can restore directly to new VM and you can do it in quite few steps. > On 03.05.2015, at 11:36, Julien Groselle <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I have never backuped any VM. > I consider every VM as a server, so I backup the data inside (rsync based > backup) and not the envelop. > > If someone can tell me what is the advantage to backup the VM, maybe I will > change my mind :-) > > Regards, > > 2015-05-02 11:34 GMT+02:00 Dietmar Maurer <[email protected]>: >> >> > it is better that all virtual machines shut down and then start vzdump >> > or is irrelevant to the speed of the backup? >> >> I guess there is not much difference.
