Exclusion of OS Drive in VM Backup

Hi
What’s the Hypervisor of the VM you’re trying to exclude the OS disk from? - It differs for different Hypervisors.
See the following link for VMware Subclients: Defining Filters for Content with VMware (commvault.com) - You can manually pick the Disk.
Note: The option to filter disks for specific VMs is only available when you are configuring filters for a subclient, and only when the subclient is configured to perform streaming backups.
Best Regards,
Michael
