Rebooting Protected Computer
You can use the Veeam Backup & Replication interface to reboot a protected computer running a Microsoft Windows OS. This operation may be required, for example, if you have installed the CBT driver on a selected computer and need to reboot this computer to finish the installation process and enable the driver.
Keep in mind that you cannot reboot a protected computer that is added to a protection group for pre-installed Veeam Agents. To learn more about protection groups for pre-installed Veeam Agents, see Protection Group Types.
