Mapping Multiple VMs in Single Job to Existing Files

Post by habibalby »

Hello,
I recently moved couple of VMs from Repository to another Repository on another Server. I have created a new Job and selected multiple VMs. How can I map existing backup Jobs ".vbm" on the new Repository to match existing backup jobs?

Appreciate your fast response.

Thanks,

Hello,
I found a way that I can map one-by-one, but is this the right approach?
Thanks,

Hello once again,

I don't think this is the right way of doing it. because the earlier jobs are each has it's own .vbm file and .vbk file. A job with multiple VMs will have one .vbm and one .vbk, but this VBK will have all the VMs on it.
