You can try with this: https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/32416_adding_virtual_machines_to_subclient_vmware_command_line.html

I would ask why?

 

In my mind, adding vm’s into the subclient itself is not wise. 

You should rather configure vm backups via discovery, using something like tags, then tags the vms.
