Step 3. Capture Undeleted Temporary Snapshots

Sometimes vCenter Server may fail to remove a temporary VM snapshot created by Veeam Backup & Replication. For certain high-priority or production systems, you may want to maintain the virtual environment completely snapshot-free. In this case, you can adjust the age threshold of the Veeam VMware: Virtual Machine Snapshot Usage Analysis monitor so that it triggers an alert if any snapshot is left after the backup job completion.

1. In OpsMgr, create a group that will include the necessary protected VMs.
2. Override the Veeam VMware: Virtual Machine Snapshot Usage Analysis snapshot age threshold for the VMs group.
