Looks really cool. Good job! What do you think of making the backing up into a loop and fetching VMs from a list? My thinking is that you usually have more than one VM you´d want to back up, so something like this maybe: def getVMsFromList(VMS_LIST): try: print 'Getting list of VMs from file \"%s\".' % (VMS_LIST) fo = open(VMS_LIST) output = [] for line in fo: strippedline = line.strip('\r\n') output.append(strippedline) fo.close() return output except Exception as e: print 'Exception in getting list of VMs:\n%s' % str(e) exit(1) And then you can loop: for LIST_VM_NAME in getVMsFromList('VMs.list'): .... Or to have the list of VMs in the config and then: config = Config(config_file, debug) VMS_LIST = vms_list for LIST_VM_NAME in getVMsFromList(VMS_LIST): .... /K > > https://github.com/wefixit-AT/oVirtBackup > > cheers > gregor > > On 2015-09-16 15:11, Amador Pahim wrote: > > On 09/15/2015 11:57 AM, gregor wrote: > >> Hi, > >> > >> I write currently a little backup tool in Python which use the following > >> workflow: > >> - create a snapshot -> works > >> - clone snapshot into VM -> help needed > > > > snapshot = > > params.Snapshot(id=api.vms.get('my_vm01').snapshots.list(description='my_vm_snap_01')[0].id) > > > > > > snapshots = params.Snapshots(snapshot=[snapshot]) > > > > api.vms.add(params.VM(name='new_vm', memory=2524971008, > > cluster=api.clusters.get("Default"), snapshots=snapshots)) > > > >> - delete the snapshot -> works > >> - export VM to NFS share -> works > >> - delete cloned VM -> TODO > >> > >> Is it possible to clone a snapshot into a VM like from the web-interface? > >> > >> The above workflow is a little bit resource expensive but it will when > >> it is finished make Online-Full-backups of VM's. > >> > >> cheers > >> gregor > >> _______________________________________________ > >> Users mailing list > >> Users@ovirt.org > >> http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users > > > _______________________________________________ > Users mailing list > Users@ovirt.org > http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users _______________________________________________ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users
