<br>
it took me a while and finally i made it.. ;-) I have added the option
to switch to and delete the snapshot that was created during backup.
However, if you do that, you lose the suspended state of the container
as the memory dump will be lost if the container is not running when you
do the switch (or) delete. Is that correct or a misunderstanding on my
side?<br>
<br>
When restoring the container without switch & delete of the
snapshot, start it up it comes up in exactly the state it was backed up
(with the memory restored). If i then delete the snapshot (without
switching to it), everything is where it was backed up. Switching to it
would also do it but it looks like it automatically does that when
restoring a suspended container?<br>
<br>
Am i mistaken here or is my interpretation correct?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Andreas<br>

<br>
<br>as i have recently converted my containers to use ploop storage, i
was
in need of a backup functionality that can be used on cronjobs. I have
now the first working version of my backup and restore scripts, which
are available at

<br>If you're interested, please have a look and let me know, what you
think, if you find any bugs or suggest improvements.

<br>Thanks, Regards,
