Hello Team.
Do Cloud machines (aka Azure VMs workload) MUST need a protection group created in VBR as 'cloud machines' for them to be backed up as agents based backup locally to Azure blob? Or can i back them up w/o creating a protection group as in manually locally to Azure blob directly? You would think i could as it's normal but per docs, looks like i need to create a group for them. Cloud machines backup is slightly different than regular agent based backups as it's done by a cloud-service thru api's. So, If i have to create 'cloud machines' protec'on group , then i have to create a dedicated distribution repository also in azure to house agent files, etc. which gets pushed out to cloud machine. So, second question is: what should be the size of this 'distribution repo'? I am sure it's less but there is nothing documented. Actually, it's in Azure, so i guess it should not ask me during its configuration, right?
Thx
