One-time backup of VM
-
Hi,
In XOA there is a tab for showing the current backup schedules associated with the VM.

What I would like is to be able to run the backup schedule, but only with the current VM and not all other VMs associated with that schedule.

Hi,
Can you explain your use case? I mean, the "why"

-
The use case I have for this VM is that it is mostly static, so I do weekly backups. However when I make some larger changes, and have verified the application, I would like to persist that change to backup storage instead of waiting up to a week.
-
And not doing the backup for the other VMs in that job I suppose?
-
@Forza Actually I have the same "issue", so +1 here.

Yes because that takes much more time and space, and is unnecessary.

It's a nice thing to have. I've come across the situations a few times now, so I thought to mention it as a feature request that makes life a little easier

Adding @florent in the loop

a case for this: have a lot old, disabled vms with some archive data\projects. Probably they will never be used again, but who knows. So i create 1 full backup, but when yet one vm go to archive, i need to run that task for all vms.
