Hi,

i just playing around with the "new" backup API for switching from the old way and simply want

to do full backup's in push mode. If i do so, 

  virsh backup-begin <domain>

the backup-Image files are always created in the image directory

As the place on the fast nvme's, where the images are lying is very limited, i want to place the

backup-image files to be on another harddisk on an mounted dir whithout temporary save them

in the image directory.

To do so, an --targetdir option on backup-begin would be very useful.

best regards

  Michael
