getting a list of VMs protected by Backup Exec

We are backing up multiple VMs in diffrent gourps which go to diffrent storeonce deviecs; Is there an easy way to get a list of the VMs through a command line or a report.  We often get requests wherein someone wants to check if a VM is being protected or not; at the moment; we are having to edit each job to see where the backup is configured.  

Ideally I would expect a backup product to provide a list of protected VMs and the job name in some sort of report; cant seem to figure that out in backup exec 21

 

  • I just tried and the report can be generated as attached.

    Steps: Reports --> New custom report.

    Left column is the VM name

    Right column is the job name

  • If you scroll down you should be seeing "Resource Name" and "Job name".
