[CentOS] Proxmox Backup Server equivalent for the RHEL/CentOS world ?

I have used oVirt for a number of years. oVirt itself doesn't include backup software (it supports VM snapshots and clones), but there are several third-party backup tools (both free and commercial) compatible with oVirt/RHV, like Storeware's vProtect (I haven't used it but seen others mention it). -- Chris Adams <linux at cmadams.net>

Is it as "free" as RHEL or as CentOS/Alma/Rocky/Navy/Oracle Linux? BTW, from what I know Proxmox does make use of ZFS for some nice features, does oVirt/RHV have some comparable solutions?
