Overview
This section includes information about and instructions on how to set up and configure backup of the Hyper-V virtual machines (VMs), how to restore Hyper-V VMs from backups, and how to restore files and folders from the Hyper-V VM backups.
Backup & Disaster Recovery supports agentless backup of the Hyper-V VMs. This means you need to install the DR backup agent only on the Hyper-V host, but not on each individual VM.
