I don't think anything other than the disks (including TPM+EFI of
course) is needed for backup. I mean, we could also disable KVM: no vCPU
will run, but QEMU will complain if you try to start a template with KVM
enabled on a node that does not support hardware virtualization (there
probably are not many of those around, but it's not impossible).
