Hi @ProofWoW

Kimchi runs on top of libvirt so the main guest configuratio is hold by libvirt in the guest XML.

To full backup the guest you will need to keep attention on:

Guest disks: the default path is /var/lib/libvirt/images but the guests can have disks not in that directory. To confirm which files you need to backup check the disks paths in Edit Guest > Storage tab
libvirt guest XML: /etc/libvirt/qemu
Kimchi guest info: /usr/share/kimchi/objectstore

I think that is all related to guest backup. Hope it helps.
