sad ... Raw feels is faster than qcow2
there is also written that snapshot not included in the backup? So failover and recovery VM's backup I get a copy of its outdated unchanged in the snapshot? How then to transfer the data from the snapshot to the working drive to ensure that they were in a backup?

yes, only the running data is included in the backup (vzdump).
I do not understand your question. Backup is from the current status of the VM.
I have a bad English, take on Google Translate, so I can properly shape their thought.
If the virtual machine first snapshot is made, installed some software-1, then take second snapshot to be deleted software-1 and software-2-established --- that will go into a backup and what will be lost if i am recovery a backup?

Think of your disk data in a timeline. If you take snapshot A at time 1, and later snapshot B at time 2, when you delete snapshot A, all it does is lose the ability to rewind to time 1. The current data on your disk is not changed. It is like a bookmark.
Only the state of the current, running VM, if you restore you will not have the snapshots. To tell with other words, is like you were deleting all snapshots and then doing a backup.
