View the protection status of VMs or intelligent VM groups

You can view the protections plans that are used to protect VMs or intelligent VM groups.

To view the protection status of VMs or intelligent VM groups

  1. On the left, click VMware.
  2. Select the Virtual machines tab or Intelligent VM groups tab, as appropriate.

    Note:

    Sorting on assets across asset types, that is, without the Asset Type filter, returns results grouped by asset types (Virtual Machine and Intelligent VM groups) and sorted within each asset type.

  3. Click the VM or the intelligent VM group.

    The Protection tab shows the details of the plans that the asset is subscribed to.

    Note:

    If the asset has been backed up, but Status indicates it has not, see the following information.
