Use the backup function, as it is foolproof.

To make a backup manually, you must copy .conf files from 
/etc/pve/qemu-server , and at least copy virtual disk files, that may be 
in a directory or not depending on the storage type. There could be 
other caveheats.

The built-in backup resolves all that for you :)

Cheers
