Hyper-V Client list

Question

Hi, im trying to remove clients from policies as they have been decom. Under Summary of All Policies->Clients, i do not see some of the clients. Under Activity Monitor for the same policy i see clients that are not listed in it. Its query based, Server Type: System Center Virtual Manager.

I tried to exclude a server since its queried based:

AND NOT VMHost StartsWith "brmwp-ctxgs001"

OR ComputerName StartsWith "brmwp-sqlbak01"

but dont seem to work. When i "Test Query" the client still shows up as Included after ive updated the policy.

Is there another way to this? Do i need to do anything from Hyper-V side?

Can someone assist with this please.

Thank you.

Try&nbsp;AND NOT Computername Contains "brmwp-ctxgs001" AND NOT Computername Contains "brmwp-sqlbak01"You need to check the Hyper-V tab of the policy. What is the Primary VM Identifer being used? That will probably need to mtach the field you are using&nbsp; in your query.&nbsp;

ill try your suggestion. Primary Identifier is VM display Name but since the Server Type is System Center Virtual Machine Manager i cant use Display Name in the query builder. which i think is causing the issue of not excluding clients.

Would you happen to know or point me to, where all the clients are listed in Hyper-V?

To my understanding, you download netbackup client on Hyper-V or cluster and there is file where you list all the clients?

Since the servers have been decom can i just remove them from the Hyper-V list, if thats possible?

Thank you
