Test Query screen for Hyper-V
This screen lists the virtual machines that NetBackup discovered in your virtual environment when you clicked Test Query. Later changes in the virtual environment may affect which virtual machines match the query rules. For example: if virtual machines are added, the test results may not be identical to the virtual machines that are selected for backup when the backup runs.
When the next backup runs from this policy, the following events occur: NetBackup re-discovers virtual machines, consults the query rules, and backs up the virtual machines that match the rules.
The list of backed up virtual machines is saved but the virtual machines are not displayed in the policy's Clients tab. You can use the Activity Monitor to view the virtual machine jobs.
The Test Query function runs in the background. You can continue to configure the policy while the test runs. Any changes you make in the Query Builder however are not included in the currently running test. You must re-initiate the test to see the results of your Query Builder changes.
