

you want to back up a pass-through disk of a Hyper-V virtual machine



you want to use pre/post backup or pre/post data capture commands on the virtual machine



you want to back up individual files and folders of the virtual machine



you want to recover files directly to the virtual machine’s file system.

The machine will be treated as a physical one. If you do not have a volume subscription, you will
need a separate server or PC subscription for this machine.

Installing the software, backing up, and recovery are the same as with a physical machine.
