The snapshot isn't consistent since it has no way of telling the VM to flush it's buffers. To make it consistent you have to run "sync" (In the VM) just prior to creating the snapshot.
Mhm but between executing sync and executing snap is again time to store data.
rbd export --snap BACKUP image1 /mnt/backup/image1.img losetup /mnt/backup/image1.img kpartx -a /dev/loop0 Now you will have the partitions from the RBD image available in /dev/mapper/loop0pX
