I’ve been using this for a while and it has been working well for me

Thank you! It look interesting, I will give it a try!

I think that you can use the API to do backup to the "local" NFS.

Most probably you can still snapshot and copy the disks , but this
will require a lot of effort to identify the read only disks and
copy them.

Thanks, Strahil!

But this is only possible with OVA export, right? And not the 
traditional way with making a snapshot and export the VM to the export 
domain.



Also, you can use pacemaker (if the NFS is a linux server) to ensure 
that failover is immediate and with NFS v3 the recovery of the clients 
should be fast enough to avoid troubles.

Hello community,

We use a NFS export domain for full backups. Sometimes I have to
restart
the NFS file server, but when I just restart that server, without
doing
anything in oVirt (I guess normally I should put the domain in
maintenance mode), it can happen that hosts and VMs a crashing.

I had one time even the issue, that after a crash one XFS file
system on
one host got damage and I had to fix that.

My though was now, because I make only one time a week a VM full
backup,
I only mount the export domain in this time.

Is there an easy way to do this, with the API? Or would you have a
other
hint, how to solve this issue?


Have a good day!
