Hmm, vzdump is cool, but what it reaqlly does? AFAIK it does rsync, then freezez VE, rsyncs again, then resume.

So what if a database is running inside VE and it writes to the disk almost continously during the backup operation ? can I be sure I'll launch the databse in consistent state after restore of VE?

I guess I cannot. Still the database should be stopped or archived using its own tool. And this is difference to VMware snapshot, Virtualbox or KVM snapshot.

Am I right?
