Test a VM query
You can test a query that you create to preview the VMs for KVM that NetBackup discovers in the current NetBackup environment.
To test a VM query
- Open the KVM policy.
- Select the Backup selections tab.
- Locate and select Test query.
The following information is displayed:
Query
The query criteria.
All
Displays the number of VMs in the NetBackup environment.
Included
Displays the number of VMs that match the query criteria.
Excluded
Displays the number of VMs that do not match the query criteria.
Failed
The virtual machine cannot be selected for backup because of a host name problem or other error. Also, the query cannot exclude the virtual machine.
An explanation is included with the VM.
List of VMs
The names of the VMs in the NetBackup environment, based on the tab that you selected.
- To perform an immediate discovery to update the asset information, scroll to the bottom of the Test query modal and select Discover now.
Note: NetBackup does not run discovery when the KVM policy runs. To reflect any new VMs in the policy, you must manually run discovery to discover those VMs.
- Select Close when you are finished.
