Hi doktornotor,
Well, while I can understand the confusion and irony of "doing nothing, successfully" in the job, I think that Global Exclusions is doing exactly what it should be doing: preventing a backup of the production VM.
Since VeeamZIP requires a snapshot and the main goal of excluding a machine from processing is to ensure a machine is not negatively impacted by the backup process, I think it's appropriate that VeeamZIP also respects the processing exclusion since presumably the exclusion was set intentionally.
Though I would agree that we should give something more informative when a VM is excluded due to the global exclusions.
