Backup/snapshot of running VM?

3214521Nov 11 2016 — edited Nov 11 2016

Understand there is no snapshot capability in OVM....

If I want to take backup of a VM before any work I guess I could clone it? Does server need to be powered off before I can clone?

If I clone - can I select which disks to clone? (i.e. just C: drive - I dont have the space to clone the whole lot)

Is there another way just to take a backup of the C: drive? I guess I could just physically copy the disk from command line?
