Descripción
At the moment there are two ways for backing up offline virtual machines:
1) Use the offline backup functionality in virtnbdbackup where the code starts the NBD Service using qemu-nbd, only copy backup works with this mode
2) Use option -S which starts VM in non-operational mode and enables all backup modes to work correctly.
I think the situations where option 1) is the better way for backing up the virtual machine are very limited. I cant think of situations where the virtual machine is not able to be started in on-operational mode.
It may make sense to enable option -S by default and remove all the legacy code from the codebase that handles starting the local and remote qemu-nbd processes for the offline backup.
