We will use `virsh` to create snapshots of the VMs and their disks. We'll need some blank file to store our XML data, and then store the XML data from a VM: ```touch [backup-name].xml sudo virsh dumpxml > [backup-name].xml``` Now we'll make our snapshot: `sudo virsh snapshot-create-as --domain [vm-name] --name [backup-name]` If you only want to snapshot the state of the disk rather than the entire VM: `sudo virsh snapshot-create-as --domain [vm-name] --name [backup-name] --disk-only --live`

We will use `virsh` to manage our snapshots of the VMs and their disks. We'll need some blank file to store our XML data, and then store the XML data from a VM: ```touch [backup-name].xml sudo virsh dumpxml > [backup-name].xml``` Now we'll make our snapshot: `sudo virsh snapshot-create-as --domain [vm-name] --name [backup-name]` You can see the list of snapshots for a certain VM via: `sudo virsh snapshot-list --domain [vm-name]` To restore your VM from a certain snapshot (make sure to turn it off prior): `sudo virsh snapshot-revert [vm-name] [vm-snapshot]`
