Hi,

that is exactly right, altough we are getting closer now, we are just checking 
the plugins that were posted a few days ago

https://github.com/ovirt-china/vm-backup-scheduler

they seem to work pretty good so far, I will talk to a few developers after the 
holidays and see whether we can improve something, we already translated a few 
things in those plugins from mandarin to English.
We will have a look into improvements of that plugin.

I will keep you guys posted.

Thanks
Soeren

Vered,

It sounds like Soeren already knows about that page.  His issue seems to be, as 
well as the issue of others judging by comments on here, is that there aren't 
any real world examples of how the API is used.

Subject: [ovirt-users] Backup and Restore of VMs



Dear all,



ovirt: 3.5

gluster: 3.6.1

OS: CentOS 7 (except ovirt hosted engine = centos 6.6)



i spent quite a while researching backup and restore for VMs right
now, so far I have come up with this as a start for us



- API calls to create schedule snapshots of virtual machines This is
or short term storage and to guard against accidential deletion
within the VM but not for storage corruption



- Since we are using a gluster backend, gluster snapshots I wasn't
able so far to really test it since the LV needs to be thin
provisioned and we did not do that in the setup



For the API calls we have the problem that we can not find any
existing scripts or something like that to do those snapshots (and
i/we are not developers enough to do that).



As an additional information, we have a ZFS based storage with
deduplication that we use for other backup purposes which does a
great job especially because of the deduplication (we can storage
generations of backups without problems), this storage can be NFS exported and 
used as backup repository.



Are there any backup and restore procedure you guys are using for
backup and restore that works for you and can you point me into the right 
direction ?

I am a little bit list right now and would appreciate any help.



Regards

Soeren
