开始之前

Before you create an application group, check the following prerequisites:

• A valid license for Enterprise edition of Veeam Backup & Replication must be installed on the backup server.
• All applications and services on which verified VMs are dependent must be virtualized in your environment.
• If you plan to scan VM data for malware, check requirements and limitations.
• If you plan to verify VMs with a ping test, the firewall on tested VMs must allow ping requests.
• If you plan to verify VMs with a heartbeat test, VMware Tools must be installed in tested VMs.
• [For storage snapshots] The storage system must be added to the backup infrastructure.

Mind the following limitations:

• VM replicas must be in the Ready state. If a VM replica is in the Failover or Failback state, you will not be able to add it to the application group.
• You cannot add to application groups VMs from backups of vCloud Director VMs, backups created with backup copy jobs and backups stored in cloud backup repositories.
