I'm still having a hard time to find a nice procedure. I mean is it possible to make a full backup of an image on monday a do the next days of the week incremental backups? Another way could be mount the image and rsync its contents. Does that makes sense? Also i read in qemu changelog: --- Support for a new block device background job. Started by drive-backup, it will backup a disk's content to a new file. Unlike drive-mirror, the new file will include the source disk's content at the time the backup job was started. Atomic backup of multiple disks is supported using the "transaction" QMP command. --- Is this supported by libvirt? thanks and best regards thomas _______________________________________________ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
