"begin paused for the duration of the backup, in some cases, its better to just abort the backup. Of course " .
"this flag is mutually exclusive with --no-snapshot\n\n" .
"\t--no-snapshot: Do not attempt to use LVM snapshots. If not present, the script will try to take a snapshot " .
"of each disk of type 'block'. If all disk can be snapshoted, the VM is resumed, or restored (depending " .
"on the --state flag) immediatly after the snapshots have been taken, resulting in almost no downtime. " .
"This is called a \"live backup\" in this script. " .
"If at least one disk cannot be snapshoted, the VM is suspended (or stoped) for the time the disks are " .
"dumped in the backup dir. That's why you should use a fast support for the backup dir (fast disks, RAID0 " .
"or RAID10)\n\n" .
"\t--snapsize=<snapsize>: The amount of space to use for snapshots. Use the same format as -L option of lvcreate. " .
"eg: --snapsize=15G. Default is 5G. For thinly provisionned volumes, this will be ignored\n\n" .
"\t--compress[=[gzip|bzip2|pbzip2|lzop|xz|lzip|plzip]]: On the fly compress the disks images during the dump. If you " .
"don't specify a compression algo, gzip will be used. For the convert action, the compression uses " .
"the internal qcow2 compression feature, and so, it ignores the compression format, in this case --compress " .
"is just seen as a boolean flag\n\n" .
"\t--exclude=hda,hdb: Prevent the disks listed from being dumped. The names are from the VM perspective, as " .
"configured in livirt as the target element. It can be usefull for example if you want to dump the system " .
"disk of a VM, but not the data one which can be backed up separatly, at the files level.\n\n" .
"\t--backupdir=/path/to/backup: Use an alternate backup dir. The directory must exists and be writable. " .
"The default is /var/lib/libvirt/backup\n\n" .
"\t--dumpcmd=<command>: Do not store backup on disk, but redirect the output to a custom command instead. " .
"This lets you use your favorite backup script/software accepting backup data on STDIN. The variables " .
"__VIRT_BACKUP_VM__ and __VIRT_BACKUP_DISK__ will be substituted by the names of the current vm and disk. " .
"Disabled by default. Only valid if action is dump\n\n" .
"\t--lockdir=/path/to/locks: Use an alternate lock dir. The directory must exists and be writable. " .
"The default is to put locks in the backup diretory, but you might want it elsewhere (on a shared storage for example)\n\n" .
"\t--connect=<URI>: URI to connect to libvirt daemon (to suspend, resume, save, restore VM etc...). " .
"The default is qemu:///system.\n\n" .
"\t--keep-lock: Let the lock file present. This prevent another " .
"dump to run while an third party backup software (BackupPC for example) saves the dumped files.\n\n" .
"\t--shutdown: Shutdown the vm instead of suspending it. This uses ACPI to send the shutdown signal. " .
"You should make sure your guest react to ACPI signals. This flag is mutual exclusive with --state\n\n" .
"\t--shutdown-timeout=<seconds>: How long to wait, in seconds, for the vm to shutdown. If the VM isn't stopped " .
"after that amount of time (in seconds), the backup will abort. The default timeout is 300 seconds\n\n" .
"\t--blocksize=<blocksize>: Specify block size in bytes (for dd and chunkfs). Default to 262144 (256kB).\n" .
"\t--max-backups=<number>: Specify the max number of backups running at a time. The script fails if the limit " .
"is reached, to prevent overloading the system\n";
