Hi @EJIE , @Just Learning ,

Can you check the Best Practices:

https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/32572_best_practices_for_virtual_server_agent_with_vmware.html

Let me know if you have any questions please.

Best Regards,

did you come up with a solution? I have a similar scenario as well!

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.
