Commvault Cloud Backup & Recovery SaaS for VM - Standard Subscription
If a VM is protected for 1 or more days in the month, then the VM is counted. The VM is counted even if it is removed from a backup schedule or if backup data was deleted from the system. If the VM is not backed up in the following months, then it is not counted for those months.
For example, if VM01 and VM02 are protected on the first day of the month, and VM01 is removed from the system later that month, then the total number of VMs protected in the month is 2. If VM01 is not backed up in the following month, and VM02 is backed up, then the total number of VMs protected in the month is 1.
