VMware backup - VM groups content based on VM notes/annotation

Question

Hello! How can I define a VM group to include VMs based on the text contained in annotations for the VM summary? I saw that I can create a filter rule to exclude VMs using the Notes field. But I want to include based on the Notes fields. How to achieve that? Regards,Pedro

Hi @PedroRochaYou will need to define a rule in the content section, this rule can be based on Notes. The value then needs to be a format indicating your annotation formatting. For example if your annotation starts with the text VMBackupOn then you could use "VMBackupOn*"https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/32181_adding_subclient_content_for_vmware.html
