April 6, 20188 yr Hey, guys im opening a new thread because it fits better in this forum. I found something PRETTY COOL. This tool let you make images while you in windows, its free and it can run via cmd. http://www.drivesnapshot.de/de/intro.htm So i guess, i could write a batch file which i run on every shutdown (or every X min) to create a image. C:\> SNAPSHOT C: X:\C-Drive.sna BUT How do i get it in the VM? (sadly, its not .img) I would need to shutdown the VM automatic (how?) Then i need to boot something like DOS (or a docker????) [i found https://github.com/jgoerzen/docker-dosemu which is a DOS in a docker] which imports the image and then starts Windows 10 VM. Has anyone any idea how to do this? 1.) How can i automatic disable/enable a VM? 2.) can dos mount the image and then do the incr restore?! I thought about this, i think its possible with user scripts plugin... 1. Shutdown Windows 10, let a task run which does a incre. backup and send it to //unraidserver/Windows 10 VM/ C:\> SNAPSHOT C: X:\C-Drive.sna 2. script turns off Windows 10 VM -Need to write script via user script plugin which detects when a new backup is there (maybe check every 5 min?) -Then stops Windows 10 VM 3. script startet DOS (z.B.), öffnet Windows 10 VM image, spielt image ein -user script starting e.g. DOS, mount .img (Windows 10 VM Image) and uses drive snapshot to restore the backup created in 1.) 4. script startet windows 10 VM - user script plugin needs to start Windows 10 VM (and maybe delete old backup - not sure by now) Edited April 6, 20188 yr by nuhll
