You should be able to use the lvm snapshot function to |get a copy of the virtual client image file while it's |running. Next backup the lvm snapshot by what ever means you |want.

The NAS cifs/samba shares I keep my vdi's on is a readynas unit which seems to support Snapshots and also has a option to backup to usb So my idea is to setup the nas unit doing snapshots and then backup to a usb drive Thanks all for ideas | |Joe | | | |_______________________________________________ |vbox-users mailing list |vbox-users@virtualbox.org |http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users | _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list vbox-users@virtualbox.org http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
