When you say "xen-server" do you mean Dom0? If yes - then it really
depends on what you use for disks for your DomUs (VMs).

I installed bacula-fd into each individual DomU (VM), instead of
figuring out how to back up disk images for VMs (whatever they might
be: over the years we've migrated from cow disks o LVs to dedicated
RBD images within Ceph cluster. Imagine if I had to redo the bacula
configuration every time this happened?)
