Yes, this is support, step similar on below:
- Create a Recovery Service Vault on Azure:
In the Azure portal:
Create a new Recovery Service Vault
Give it a descriptive name (e.g., “MyLaptopVault”)
Choose a location
Click “Create.”
- Install Azure Backup Agent on Your Laptop:
Download and install the Azure Backup Agent on each laptop
This agent will handle the backup process
- Configure Backup Settings:
Open the Azure Backup Agent
Set up a backup schedule (daily, weekly, etc.)
Select the files and folders you want to back up (your critical data)
Point it to your Recovery Service Vault
3 - Select the files and folders you want to back up (your critical data) .... I dont want to backup critical data as my critical data are on onedrive/sharepoint. I need to backup the system so that it can be restored on another laptop in case of laptop faulure.
Anyway, ... thank you both! Will be testing it coming days.
