Well, it appears to me that with an image backup, you get a mountable ISO file. My question is in the case of a corrupt vdisk image file, what's the process for restoring the backup? It feels like I have to recreate the vm (from saved xml file) but then how do I get the contents of the image into the new vdisk file? Mount the image with unassigned devices and copy the contents over manually or boot from the ISO and then what?
EDIT: Also I'm noticing that the disk in my array where I have the backup folder is not spinning down even though I only have image backup enabled on a 7 day cycle?
