Number of VMs per Backup Job
I wanted to get some input on the Backup Job best practice. I currently have my backup job setup 1 VM per job. Would it be better to put them all in one job? What are the benefits and cons of doing this? The VMs are 2 running Server 2016, 1 running Server 2012 R2 and 1 Ubuntu Server.

Re: Number of VMs per Backup Job
With the number of VMs you have, and considering that almost every VM runs a different OS, it does not really matter. Now if you had hundreds or thousands of VMs, then of course you would not want to have a separate job for each VM. We usually recommend a few hundreds of VMs per job. Thanks!
