Removing Protection Group

You can remove a protection group that you configured.

When you remove a protection group, Veeam Backup & Replication removes Veeam Agents from all protected computers included in this protection group, too. The protection group is removed permanently. You cannot undo this operation.

Backup created for computers that were included in the removed protection group remain intact in the backup location. You can delete this backup data manually later if needed.

Removing Protection Group Note:

Consider the following:

  • You cannot remove a protection group if the entire protection group or a separate computer included in this protection group is added to a Veeam Agent backup job.
  • You cannot remove default protection groups, such as Manually Added, Unmanaged, and so on.

To remove a protection group:

  1. Open the Inventory view.
  2. In the inventory pane, expand the Physical & Cloud Infrastructure node.
  3. In the inventory pane, select the protection group that you want to remove and click Remove Group on the ribbon or right-click the protection group and select Remove.
