Hi There,
In PS-Reference I can find how to add a hyper-V or vSphere VM to an existing Job. But I can't find any cmdlet to add physical machines to an windows job via FQDN as it is possible in GUI.
Maybe it's possible with protection groups. But due to the fact I have to backup many windows server, which all have there own local and also Azure blog storage repository as target, I have to create a protection group for each single server which ends up in a large management overhead.
Any ideas?

Re: HowTo Add Windows-Agent to existing Backupjob
Hi Manuel,
Adding physical machines directly to a windows job by FQDN in the UI is just an interactive option - on the backend the are also being added to a protection group, but the predefined one called "Manually Added". Which means in Powershell the workflow doesn't differ from processing protection groups and machines within:
1. Add physical machine to "Manually Added" protection group. Guide: Working with Protection Groups.
2. Get existing job backup objects and add physical machines from step 1. Guide: Veeam Management Backup Jobs.
Best regards,
Oleg
