are not met, then Recovery Manager for Hyper-V can take a saved state (crash consistent)
backup for the VM, if this option is enabled. If the option has not been enabled and all
requirements for an application consistent backup are not met, then Recovery Manager
for Hyper-V will fail the backup request.

consistent back up first, whether or not this option is enabled.
