Hi guys,

First off well done to the oVirt contributors - it is an excellent product!

Has anyone tested Acronis Backup and Recovery with oVirt?
I am looking for a reliable way to backup guest oVirt disk images, config and state. So far I've tried the popular script by Daniel Berteaud 'virt-backup.pl' which works very well for our standard KVM systems but I found that I had to disable libvirtd's SASL authentication which caused oVirt to lose connectivity to the node and oVirt to fence the node. I thought I'd try a manual 'virsh save' but that causes oVirt to believe that the guest has gone down which causes the guest to be automatically migrated (I am running 2 nodes).

What experience have you had with backing up guests? I am not sure if Acronis is the best way forward?
