-Description: A backup utility for QEMU, KVM, XEN, and Virtualbox guests.
-        Virt-back is a python application that uses the libvirt api to safely

-        for auditing and virt-back works great with cron for scheduling outages.
-        Virt-back has been placed in the public domain and 
-        the latest version may be downloaded here:
