Backup xml description is like this:
<domainbackup> <name>backup name</name> <disk type="file" name="sda"> <target file="/path/to/backup/file.qcow2" format="qcow2"/> </disk> </domainbackup>
- <name> element is optional.
- disk @type attribute is optional, default to 'file'. Valid values are 'file', 'block', 'dir', 'network', 'volume' just as usual for specifing domain disk sources. It specifies backup <target> type.
- <target> element has same attributes and its values as <source> element in domain disk description.
- target @format attribute is optional. If it is not specified then hypervisor will choose format by its default rule (for qemu it same format as disk to be backed up).
Elements that are not explicitly mentioned as optional are mandatory. Current description does not support implicitly specified disks to be backed up like snapshot xml description for example. --- po/POTFILES.in | 1 + src/Makefile.am | 1 + src/conf/backup_conf.c | 267 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/conf/backup_conf.h | 65 ++++++++++++ src/libvirt_private.syms | 6 ++ src/qemu/qemu_conf.h | 1 +
This needs to have docs/schemas/domainbackup.rng file added, as well as docs/formatdomainbackup.html.in Regards, Daniel -- |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange :| |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.com :| |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberrange :|
