All the same, backing up the VM filesystem from within the VM is the

Hi Niki,
I'm using a similar approach like Stephen's, but with a kink.
* Kickstart all machines from a couple of ISOs, depending on the requirements
(the Kickstart process is controlled by Ansible)
* Machines that have persistent data (which make up about 50% in average) have

What *I* do for backing up KVM VMs is that I use LVM volumes, not QCOW2
images. Then I take a LVM "snapshot" volume, then mount that locally /
