*vzdump* `help`
*vzdump* `{<vmid>}` `[OPTIONS]`
Create backup.
`<vmid>`: `<string>` ::
The ID of the guest system you want to backup.
`--all` `<boolean>` ('default =' `0`)::
Backup all known guest systems on this host.
`--bwlimit` `<integer> (0 - N)` ('default =' `0`)::
Limit I/O bandwidth (in KiB/s).
`--compress` `<0 | 1 | gzip | lzo | zstd>` ('default =' `0`)::
Compress dump file.
`--dumpdir` `<string>` ::
Store resulting files to specified directory.
`--exclude` `<string>` ::
Exclude specified guest systems (assumes --all)
`--exclude-path` `<array>` ::
Exclude certain files/directories (shell globs). Paths starting with '/' are anchored to the container's root, other paths match relative to each subdirectory.
`--ionice` `<integer> (0 - 8)` ('default =' `7`)::
Set IO priority when using the BFQ scheduler. For snapshot and suspend mode backups of VMs, this only affects the compressor. A value of 8 means the idle priority is used, otherwise the best-effort priority is used with the specified value.
`--lockwait` `<integer> (0 - N)` ('default =' `180`)::
Maximal time to wait for the global lock (minutes).
`--mailnotification` `<always | failure>` ('default =' `always`)::
Deprecated: use 'notification-policy' instead.
`--mailto` `<string>` ::
Comma-separated list of email addresses or users that should receive email notifications. Has no effect if the 'notification-target' option is set at the same time.
`--maxfiles` `<integer> (1 - N)` ::
Deprecated: use 'prune-backups' instead. Maximal number of backup files per guest system.
`--mode` `<snapshot | stop | suspend>` ('default =' `snapshot`)::
Backup mode.
`--node` `<string>` ::
Only run if executed on this node.
`--notes-template` `<string>` ::
Template string for generating notes for the backup(s). It can contain variables which will be replaced by their values. Currently supported are \{\{cluster\}\}, \{\{guestname\}\}, \{\{node\}\}, and \{\{vmid\}\}, but more might be added in the future. Needs to be a single line, newline and backslash need to be escaped as '\n' and '\\' respectively.
+
NOTE: Requires option(s): `storage`
`--notification-policy` `<always | failure | never>` ('default =' `always`)::
Specify when to send a notification
`--notification-target` `<string>` ::
Determine the target to which notifications should be sent. Can either be a notification endpoint or a notification group. This option takes precedence over 'mailto', meaning that if both are set, the 'mailto' option will be ignored.
`--performance` `[max-workers=<integer>] [,pbs-entries-max=<integer>]` ::
Other performance-related settings.
`--pigz` `<integer>` ('default =' `0`)::
Use pigz instead of gzip when N>0. N=1 uses half of cores, N>1 uses N as thread count.
`--pool` `<string>` ::
Backup all known guest systems included in the specified pool.
`--protected` `<boolean>` ::
If true, mark backup(s) as protected.
+
NOTE: Requires option(s): `storage`
`--prune-backups` `[keep-all=<1|0>] [,keep-daily=<N>] [,keep-hourly=<N>] [,keep-last=<N>] [,keep-monthly=<N>] [,keep-weekly=<N>] [,keep-yearly=<N>]` ('default =' `keep-all=1`)::
Use these retention options instead of those from the storage configuration.
`--quiet` `<boolean>` ('default =' `0`)::
Be quiet.
`--remove` `<boolean>` ('default =' `1`)::
Prune older backups according to 'prune-backups'.
`--script` `<string>` ::
Use specified hook script.
`--stdexcludes` `<boolean>` ('default =' `1`)::
Exclude temporary files and logs.
`--stdout` `<boolean>` ::
Write tar to stdout, not to a file.
`--stop` `<boolean>` ('default =' `0`)::
Stop running backup jobs on this host.
`--stopwait` `<integer> (0 - N)` ('default =' `10`)::
Maximal time to wait until a guest system is stopped (minutes).
`--storage` `<string>` ::
Store resulting file to this storage.
`--tmpdir` `<string>` ::
Store temporary files to specified directory.
`--zstd` `<integer>` ('default =' `1`)::
Zstd threads. N=0 uses half of the available cores, N>0 uses N as thread count.
