To be able to back up VMs residing on hosts that are managed by the Virtualization manager, you must add to the backup infrastructure a backup appliance that will process backup jobs and deliver backup traffic to backup repositories.
To add a backup appliance, you can either deploy a new backup appliance or connect an existing one. Note that you can add only one backup appliance for each Virtualization manager.
