Creating Veeam Agent Backup Jobs

To create a Veeam Agent backup job, you must create a Veeam Agent backup job in Veeam Backup & Replication with the Managed by backup server option selected in the job settings.

Veeam Backup & Replication lets you create backup jobs for the following types of protected computers:

Microsoft Windows computers protected with Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows

If you want to protect a computer running Unix or macOS, you must create a Veeam Agent backup policy. For details, see Creating Policy for Unix Computers and Creating Agent Backup Policy for Mac Computers.
