  1. Proper VM backups

    I would like the ability to do fast decent VM backups similar to how OnAPP does it, or integrate r1soft like Onapp v6 will do which would be a better backups solution.

  3. Add an option to restore the deleted VM from the Automated FTP backups- /scripts/ftp-restore

    /scripts/ftp-restore is helpful when we restore the backup on the same VM. But if the VM is deleted from the server, we have to manually rename the backup files in backup server and restore it on a newly created VM and that's not easy process to do when we have to restore large number of VM's.

    It would be good if you automate this in SolusVM or using any restoration script.

  4. backup all filesystems for KVM

    Currently, only the primary filesystem is backed up during the auto FTP backup process. All filesystems added to a Virtual Machine should be included in the backup, or an option should be added to include the secondary file systems.

  5. Better Backup Compression

    Perhaps a faster and lighter compression method based on this article?

    https://vbtechsupport.com/1576/

    Seems pigz is the overall winner.

  7. Increase the pbzip2 threads for Automated FTP backup.

    Increase the pbzip2 threads upto 30 for Automated FTP backup. It would be good if there is option to select 30 pbzip2 threads in Backup settings dropd-down.

  9. Disable Backup Deletion upon VM delete and Enable Recovery

    • Stop deletion, set purge.

    • VM deletion also deletes backups. This should purge after XX days not immediately as their could be a mistake. We should be able to set purge days per backup node.

    • Backup Recovery

    Recovering a full backup to a new CR.
    - Select the backup from a list of Backups (even deleted VMs) pending purge
    - Select the NEW CR
    - Select the NEW hostname

    The backup server will send full backup to newly created VM on selected CR.

    • I'm sure there is underlying issues here but this would be amazing *

  14. backup information usability

    Would like improvement in backup usability information, It involves a few small things that will enhance usability:

    • please add extra column in virtual server list which indicate if the backup has been enabled for that VM (also a toggle switch)
    • please add the server hostname information at the end of the backup file name.
    • please add the server hostname information too at the email backup report

  18. Modify AutoFTP backup file names

    Add the ability to modify AutoFTP backup file names for VM's as they get backed up.
    For example, Currently, they are saved like this,
    3568-vz-3558-1.tgz
    I would like to include the node name in the file as well. So it could look like,
    de-vz4-3568-vz-3558-1.tgz
    Depending on the slave node name.
