You'd have to do something along the lines of various options discussed in, for example: http://discussions.citrix.com/topic/275872-a-neat-way-to-export-vms-from-linux/ We use a local network that's totally isolated for backups, so while not encrypted, at least it's not over a public net. The alternative is to manually deal with the compression/encryption on the NFS server side. We do not use on-the-fly compression because we have a lot of VMs to back up and it really slow things down a lot. Adding encryption during the transmission would probably add around a 10% or so overhead, I'm guessing.
As topic says, is it possible to password protect backup with compression? or encrypt somehow?
