Support and use of VMware tag associations

NetBackup supports using VMware tags for virtual machine selection. You use this feature when you configure VMware Intelligent Policies to protect virtual machines. More information about this feature is available.

See Notes and limitations for tag usage in VMware Intelligent Policy queries.

See Query rules for tags.

NetBackup also supports the backup and restore of VMware tag associations with virtual machines when you use VMware Intelligent Policies. The tag association metadata for all tags that are associated with a virtual machine are backed up with that virtual machine. If those tags exist on the vCenter Server, they are recreated when the virtual machine is restored. More information about this feature is available.

See Notes and limitations for the backup and restore of VMware tag associations.
