This is an experimental simple NAS backup plugin for KVM which may be later expanded for other hypervisors. This backup plugin aims to use shared NAS storage on KVM hosts such as NFS or CephFS, which is used to backup fully cloned VMs for backup & restore operations. This may not be as efficient and performant as some of the other B&R providers, but maybe useful for some KVM environments. Design & Implementation follows the `networker` B&R plugin, which is simply: - Implement B&R plugin interfaces - Use cmd-answer pattern to execute backup and restore operations on KVM host when VM is running (or needs to be restored) - instead of a B&R API client, relies on answers from KVM agent which executes the operations - Backups are full VM domain snapshots, copied to a VM-specific folders on a NAS target (NFS or CephFS WIP) along with a domain XML ### Types of changes - [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change) - [x] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality) - [ ] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue) - [ ] Enhancement (improves an existing feature and functionality) - [ ] Cleanup (Code refactoring and cleanup, that may add test cases) - [ ] build/CI - [ ] test (unit or integration test code) ### Feature/Enhancement Scale or Bug Severity #### Feature/Enhancement Scale - [x] Major - [ ] Minor -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
