Step 4. Specify Organization Scope

At the Scope step of the wizard, choose whether you want Veeam Backup for AWS to have full or limited access to resources within the AWS Organization.

If you select the Limited scope option, you must also specify the scope explicitly — to do that, click Add. Then, select the necessary organizational units to include in the scope and provide a unique name for it in the Specify scope of organizational units window.

Tip

If the list of available organizational units does not show the units that you want to include, click Rescan to launch the data collection process. As soon as the process is over, Veeam Backup for AWS will update the unit list.

Keep in mind that after you specify an organization scope (either full or limited), you will not be able to modify it by adding the same organization to Veeam Backup for AWS again. If necessary, you can modify the scope as described in Editing Organization Settings.
