It is exactly the same process for physical machine or cloud instance. PS: I unchecked All virtual machines because, for this example, I have installed the agent on a VM. You can specify excluded objects such as virtual machines (they don’t need an agent), offline computers or objects. Then I click on Add to browse the Active Directory and add an object such an OU or a computer. You can also specify an individual computer or computers from a CSV file. In the next window, I choose to populate the protection group from Active Directory. Then specify a protection group name and provide a description. Then click on create the protection group. To create the protection group, navigate to Inventory | Physical & Cloud Infrastructure. In this example, I create a protection group and I populate it by browsing the Active Directory. The protection group is a set of physical machines/cloud instances which are protected by an agent. If you deploy Veeam Agent from Veeam Backup & Replication, you need an account which is a local administrator of the physical machine/cloud instance. If you have already deployed Veeam Agent for Windows / Linux on several servers, you can use them in Veeam Backup & Replication without uninstalling. There is no need to deploy Veeam Agent before using this new feature.

Veeam Backup & Replication automatically installs agents and other required components on the machines included in the protection group. When you create a protection group, you add individual machines or Active Directory containers to the protection group.

To back up physical machines using Veeam Backup & Replication, you must do the following: Instead, you can perform the whole set of deployment, administration, data protection and disaster recovery tasks on computers remotely from the Veeam Backup & Replication console.

You do not need to install, set up and operate Veeam Agent on every machine whose data you want to protect. To back up physical machines, Veeam Backup & Replication uses Veeam Agents: Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows and Veeam Agent for Linux.
