José,
don't forget to backup /vz/conf/<VEID>.conf file also.
if you do dumps of databases everything else should be quite fine.
anyway, it is better take another machine disconnected from the network and
just check that your backups do work after restore. Just to be 100% sure
in yourself.
Thanks,
Kirill
