As far as I know by now is that I'd have to backup with backuppc just
"copies" of VM images. This should mean that on the other side there is
already a tool which creates copies of those VM images, thus I shouldn't
need to care about any corruption at all (it's not my duty).

Cheers and have a nice weekend!
