Step 4. Exclude Objects from Backup Copy Job

If you have added VM containers to the list of processed machines, you can specify which objects you want to exclude from the backup copy job.

Step 4. Exclude Objects from Backup Copy Job Note:

The Exclude option is available for VM backup copy jobs only. This option is not available for Veeam Agent backup copy jobs.

At the Objects step of the wizard, select a VM container added to the job and click Exclusions.
Click the Objects tab.
Click Add.
Use the toolbar at the top right corner of the window to switch between views. Depending on the view you select, some objects may not be available. For example, if you select the VMs and Templates view, no resource pools, hosts or clusters will be displayed in the tree.
In the displayed tree, select the necessary object and click Add. Use the Show full hierarchy check box to display the hierarchy of all hosts added to Veeam Backup & Replication.
Click OK.
