SEP Tip.png Tip
You can use the powerful Attributes feature to enable smart grouping of existing or new VMs that fit certain criteria for backups. For example, you can set a specific attribute Backup and then specify the value yes (include) (or no as exclude) to filter and group all virtual machines that have this attribute set. You can refine your attributes by adding additional values to them. For example, you can add additional values daily, weekly etc., to your attribute Backup. Note that SEP sesam only lists the attributes that are created with VMware vSphere Client and stored with vCenter Server. For details on how to create custom attributes, see VMware documentation. If you are using the VMware web interface for creating the attributes, refer to article Custom Attributes in the vSphere Web Client.
