Revoking License Units

Veeam Backup for Microsoft Azure automatically revokes a license unit from a protected Azure VM if no new restore points have been created by a backup policy during the past 31 days. However, you can manually revoke license units from protected Azure VMs. Revoking license units can be helpful, for example, if you remove a number of Azure VMs from a backup policy and do not want to protect them anymore.

To revoke a license unit from an Azure VM, do the following:

1. Switch to the Configuration page.
2. Navigate to Licensing > License Usage.
3. Select the Azure VM that you no longer want to protect.
4. Click Revoke License.
