**Note:** Each VM in the backup file has its path listed in
`qubes.xml.000.enc` (search for the `backup-path` property). You can
extract only the files necessary for your VM (`vmX`) with `tar -i -xvf
qubes-backup-2015-06-05T123456 backup-header backup-header.hmac vmX/`.
**To extract only specific VMs:** Each VM in the backup file has its path
listed in `qubes.xml.000.enc`. Decrypt it. (In this example, the password is
`password`.)
2. Set the backup passhprase environment variable. While this isn't strictly
[user@restore ~]$ cat backup-header | grep backup-id

Now that you have the decrypted `qubes.xml.000` file, search for the
`backup-path` property inside of it. With the `backup-path`, extract only
the files necessary for your VM (`vmX`).

2. Set the backup passphrase environment variable. While this isn't strictly
required, it will be handy later and will avoid saving the passphrase in
the shell's history.
