Do you plan to make a feature to be able to restore individual files from backup archive? Also I am wondering is it possible to restore a VPS from a disaster recovery of physical server? Thanks for this great product.

you can restore the backup of KVM guests and OpenVZ containers on any Proxmox VE servers, see http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Backup_-_Restore_-_Live_Migration#Restore_with_vzrestore_and_qmrestore
 
May I suggest (not affiliated in anyway!) http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/? It can use rsync (or samba to backup windows machines) and in my experience it works flawlessly. Just set it up and off it goes.

I have it running as a complimentary solution to backing up the entire VM
 
yes, backuppc is an option for diskbased backups, also bacula if you need tape support. if you want a commercial solution, e.g. arkeia.
 
I use both. I view proxmox backup as an (excellent) disaster recovery situation. I use backuppc as a 'doh - I didn't mean to save that file'.
