Adding VMs to Job

If you want to protect additional VMs by configured jobs, you can either edit the backup job settings, or quickly add the VMs to the jobs on the Resources tab.

Note

While adding VMs to a job, consider the following:

If a VM is already added to the exclusion list in the job, the VM will not be protected.
You cannot add VMs to a protection domain snapshot job. To protect a VM as part of a protection domain, add the VM to the domain as described in Nutanix documentation and make sure that the protection domain is included into a protection domain snapshot job.

To add a VM to a backup or snapshot job, do the following:

Navigate to Resources.
Select the VM that you want to protect by a job.
Click Add to Job.
In the Add to Job window, choose the job that will protect the selected VM and click Apply.

Tip

You can also add a VM to a backup or snapshot job using the Veeam Backup & Replication console. To do that, in the inventory pane of the Inventory view, navigate to the Nutanix AHV cluster where the VM resides, select the VM and click Add to Snapshot or Add to Backup on the ribbon.
