    Hi, so here's the problem. I have a disk that will take about 27 hours to back up. However due to power constraints i can only keep a computer on for about 12 hours.

    Is there any way of stopping a backup disk (not partition) operation, shutting the computer down and then resuming it?

    If nothing exists in clonezilla to support that then if say i was running clonezilla in a virtual machine and then i hibernate the host OS, what's the chances of it still working on resume/bad things happening.

    Thank you.

    Sorry, no such function in Clonezilla.
    "i hibernate the host OS, what's the chances of it still working on resume/bad things happening. " -> Never tried here before. I am interested in this, too.
    I believe if you save the image on local disk, the resume after hibernation should work. However if the image repository is on network file server, it might fail.

    Steven.
