Dear list,

        I'm trying to write a suspend/resume script for bacula to enable
        it to backup (running) virtual machine images. I'd like to be able
        to map from a fixed server name to the dynamic vm_id, but can't see
        any obvious way to do this. Any suggestions ?

        (I had hoped running "onevm list -l id,name" might give the full 
        name but it seems to be cut off at 8 characters which is a bit risky
        to match on.)
        
        Or perhaps the backup agent should run inside each virtual machine
        rather than backing up the vm image ?. Any advantages/disadvantages ?

regards,

Richard
