[virt-tools-list] Would this suffice to backup a local vm image?

I finally have a non-rhev related question.

Would this suffice to back up a virtual machine to external media,
that could be later imported into virt-manager to run on another
system?

run:
virt-clone (back up the disk image to external media)
virsh dumpxml vm > /backup/media/vm.xml

Or is this not going to work?

Thanks.
