I think a decent explanation can be found here: http://www.andy-burton.co.uk/blog/index.php/2009-08/citrix-xenserver-automated-live-vm-backup-to-windows-cifs-share/ I think that is probably enough to get the conversation going and may be enough for you to put together a set of commands or a script that meets your needs.
