Backup to template on a different storage domain #43

Closed kukoarmas closed 4 years ago

kukoarmas commented 7 years ago

Adds functionality to backup to templates on a different storage domain Also, separate actions in different functions to simplify changes Cloned VM from snapshot can be created in a different storage domain to optimize space utilization

Backups can be done to export domain (original type), to template on a different storage domain, or both

Also, change backup retention to keep the last number of backups specified in the backup_keep_count option. Keeping the last backups per number and not age is safer, because if we delete backups older than 3 days (for example), if backups fails for more than 3 days we will have no backups. It's safer to keep a number of the last backups, no matter how old they are
