it is qubes 3.2

Now I found a way:
I booted kali from usb stick,
then I did
cryptsetup  luksOpen /dev/sda3  green
and mount /dev/dm-blabla  /mnt/8

also I mounted my nas to nfs (no file security) in air gapped network
mount 192.0.123:/bigsasdrives/bakup /net/nas
and copied /var/lib/cubes to it
cp -av /var/lib/qubes /net/nas

this is running.

The disk to full problem is found:
I went to
/var/lib/qubes/personal
said file private.img
and file was so nice to tell me that private.img needs fsck.

but as there is important data on this private.img,
I first copy it to the nas and then say e2fsck private.img

So this a way to repair your cubes without using the idiotic
tools of qubes :-)
