Hello one and all.
Just wanted to check out the new feature domainbackup but having trouble to configure it. I thought I just have to put
<domainbackup> <disks> <disk name='vda' type='file'> <target file='/var/lib/libvirt/jitsi'/> <driver type='raw'/> </disk> </disks> </domainbackup>
at the top level of my domain xml file but that does not seem to work. I get:
error: XML document failed to validate against schema: Unable to validate doc against /usr/share/libvirt/schemas/domain.rng Element domain has extra content: domainbackup
That's not how it's used, if you want to create a backup you have to use the virDomainBackupBegin API e.g. via `virsh backup-begin VMNAME /path/to/backup.xml`. Your backup xml file seems to look correct.
