VMware vSphere • Exclude folder from VM job

Hi,

I have a question about a specific Veeam B&R job that backup's a couple of Windows VM's. I want to exclude a specific folder from a specific VM. I think I know how to do this and I already have configured everything through the application-aware processing option. I used this documentation to exclude the specific folder: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/archive/ba ... clude.html and I want to double check the specific folder isn't included in the backup tonight because it's a temp folder and way too big to be included.

I have clicked Applications > Edit for the specific VM I want to exclude a folder on. After that, in the Exclusions tab > exclude section i have clicked add and added this folder: D:\DATA
This folder (DATA on drive D:\) is the folder on that VM that needs to be excluded. My question: is the syntax correct and will it be excluded from the backup if all other requirements are met (like for example AAP being enabled)?



Thanks in advance
