I have just seen that there is a sort of "survey" to see what is the feeling/interest in having an opensource alternative for commercial Red Hat Tower here: https://www.ansible.com/open-tower I just joined and who is interested could do the same.

Re: [ovirt-users] oVirt VM backups
One thing that I cannot conceive when doing oVirt backups is the need to clone the VM in order to copy it. Why, as in VMware, isn't possible to just Snapshot and copy the read-only disk ?

Now that I think of this, it's probably just as easy to write as an Ansible role and add it to https://github.com/machacekondra/ovirt-ansible-roles If you are using Gluster, I believe http://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/gluster/gluster-dr/ is also relevant.

Re: [ovirt-users] oVirt VM backups
Hi, Yes, the python script is using this API. I was thinking to have in the GUI for VM backups sth similar as the gluster volume snapshot schedules.

[ovirt-users] oVirt VM backups
Hi All, For VM backups I am using some python script to automate the snapshot -> clone -> export -> delete steps (although with some issues when trying to backups a Windows 10 VM) I was wondering if there is there any plan to integrate VM backups in the GUI or what other recommended ways exist out there.
