Hi, as per the Link it’s not supported: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/hyperv/platform_support.html?ver=120#hv_platform_long

 

IIRC there’s API limitations, you’d have to use a Veeam Agent to backup from inside the VM.

@MicoolPaul, thanks, I realize W11 is not support as a host for VM, was hoping for a workaround without using Veeam Agent.

But using Veeam Agent is not a problem.
