/* State of the art */
** The <code>virsh restore</code> command is not executed with the <code>--xml</code> option, the XML from the state file is taken when restoring the machine. Therefore the conflicts are not properly resolved.
*** --[[User:Pat|Pat]] ([[User talk:Pat|talk]]) 09:41, 29 October 2013 (CET): Currently the [http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/Sys-Virt-1.1.3/lib/Sys/Virt.pm Sys::Virt] library does not support the --xml parameter when restoring a domain
 
=== How to manually restore a machine from backup ===
'''Important''': Before you continue with this guide, make sure that you have no other possibility to restore the machine. It might be easier and safer to get lost files from the online backup if the machine has one set up.
 
As a first step, you would like to set some useful bash variables to be able to copy paste the following guide
<source lang='bash'>
machinename="<MACHINE-NAME>" # For example: machinename="0f83f084-8080-413e-b558-b678e504836e"
</source>
