BACKUP SCHEDULER VMWARE NAME UPDATE
BACKUP SCHEDULER VMWARE NAME WINDOWS

You should be running Azure Backup Server with the latest updates. If you haven't, do that before you start.

Make sure you've set up Azure Backup Server.Verify that you're running a version of vCenter/ESXi that's supported for backup.MABS can't protect VMware VMs with existing snapshots.MABS can't detect or protect VMware vApps.MABS can't protect VMware VMs with pass-through disks and physical raw device mappings (pRDM).Once MABS completes the first backup, then you can back up user snapshots.

You can't back up user snapshots before the first MABS backup.If you use vCenter to manage ESXi servers in your environment, add vCenter (and not ESXi) to the MABS protection group.

If you want to use the FQDN, you should stop the protection as a Windows Server, remove the protection agent, and then add as a VMware Server using FQDN.You can use the static IP address of vCenter Server as a workaround.If you have been using MABS to protect a vCenter server (running on Windows) as a Windows Server using the FQDN of the server, you can't protect that vCenter server as a VMware server using the FQDN of the server.VMware server 6.7, 6.5, 6.0, or 5.5 (Licensed Version)īefore you start backing up a VMware virtual machine, review the following list of limitations and prerequisites. VMware server 7.0, 6.7, 6.5, or 6.0 (Licensed Version) MABS can recover files/folders from a Windows VM without recovering the entire VM, which helps recover necessary files faster.MABS protects VMs migrated for load balancing: As VMs are migrated for load balancing, MABS automatically detects and continues VM protection.MABS protects VMs stored on a local disk, network file system (NFS), or cluster storage.As you organize your VMs in recursive folders, MABS automatically detects and protects the new VMs deployed in the recursive folders. MABS detects new VMs on a daily basis and protects them automatically. When you're protecting folders, MABS not only protects the VMs in that folder, but also protects VMs added later. MABS detects these folders and lets you protect VMs at the folder level and includes all subfolders. Folder level auto protection: vCenter lets you organize your VMs in VM folders.MABS also detects VMs managed by vCenter, allowing you to protect large deployments. As your deployment size grows, use vCenter to manage your VMware environment. Detect and protect VMs managed by vCenter: MABS detects and protects VMs deployed on a VMware server (vCenter or ESXi server).MABS's backup and recovery workflow helps you manage long-term retention and offsite backup. Cloud Integrated Backup: MABS protects workloads to disk and cloud.Instead, just provide the IP address or fully qualified domain name (FQDN), and sign-in credentials used to authenticate the VMware server with MABS. Agentless backup: MABS doesn't require an agent to be installed on the vCenter or ESXi server, to back up the virtual machine.MABS provides the following features when backing up VMware virtual machines: This section provides the supported scenarios to protect VMware VMs. Set up a protection group that contains the VMware VMs you want to back up, specify backup settings, and schedule the backup.Add the vCenter or ESXi server to Azure Backup Server.Add the account credentials to Azure Backup.Set up a VMware account that Azure Backup Server uses to access the VMware server.

Set up a secure channel so that Azure Backup Server can communicate with VMware servers over HTTPS.To protect VMware VM using Azure Backup you need to:
