Hello, I have two servers where I can push VMs from one to the other by issuing the command virsh migrate --live --persistent --copy-storage-all --verbose \ test6 qemu+ssh://kvmhost2/system on kvmhost1. I can get the VM back by issuing the equivalent command on kvmhost2: virsh migrate --live --persistent --copy-storage-all --verbose \ test6 qemu+ssh://kvmhost1/system virsh copies the local data file /data/vm/test6.qcow2 with the filesystem over to the other server. Is there a way to just copy the data file over to the second server, without moving the VM? I want the equivalent of doing these two migrations is sequence, but without moving the VM. The goal is to get a backup copy of a running system onto a second system (kvmhost2). The copy (snapshot) from kvmhost2 can then be copied to a backup server, and can be used for a fast recovery point if kvmhost1 dies.
