Linux Image backup - possible?

Hi,

urbackup seems to be a nice solution to get images out of all those cloud providers like aws.

Windows works nicely, but I have seen different comments around images with linux.

LVM snapshots are used for file backup, what about this dattobd? Can I use that for complete image backup / restore.

Scenario is get complete machines easy out of aws and run them in local vmware installations.

Can this work?

Thanks!
Joerg
