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/`. 3. Set backup passhprase environment variable. While this isn't strictly required, it will be handy later and will avoid saving the passphrase into shell history.
