Any docker or plugin available to do manual VM backups like Proxmox?


Recommended Posts

In Proxmox I got used to doing manual backups before a did any experimentation to a VM. Proxmox has a nice little notes section per VM that I would use to describe the current state of the VM before I changed it. When you did a backup the notes came along for the ride. So when restoring a backup I would know what the backup contained. Made it easy to know which VM backup to roll back to.

 

Is there any docker or plugin for unRAID that has similar functionality? Also, a UI would be nice for reviewing the backup files and restoring them instead of manually overwriting the XML and manually copying the img file. The virt-manager docker in CA comes close to these requirements. Problem is there seems to be no way to store the snapshots on a share that virt-manager creates. I guess it stores them internally? Also, I'm unclear if virt-manager is backing up the XML also. Thoughts?
