Also Veeam announced oVirt support last May.
I did see anyone using or testing Veeam on OLVM or oVirt.

Hiya,

The API in oVirt engine actually supports creating snapshots etc. for backups. 
Check out github for scripts, i.e.:

https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/luisperezmarin/oVirtVMBackup__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!aLktcN2ZyTyy0Qa70UDbLPzKdU3VKYHfL6zBVWy0NNo0M8tkjN1NVxSDMfDmLnboxA8$
 

And there are others.

There is also a commercial solution, Storware vProtect:

And as far as backup systems go, bareos(open source) is an ok solution, and it 
also support oVirt:
