Answer 1

AzureisMyCareer-5423 Thanks for reaching out to us!
The Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupJob cmdlet gets Azure Backup jobs for a specific vault. If you are looking to get these details only for VMs, see 'Example 4'might be helpful.

Get-AzRecoveryServicesBackupStatus - This command is for status to check whether a VM is backed up or not. Reference link - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/az.recoveryservices/get-azrecoveryservicesbackupstatus?view=azps-4.6.0

Let us know if that helps or need further assistance in this matter.

@Rajendar Chakinala While we don't have a readymade sample PS script to achieve this, you can put together your own script with the help of below links:

Query VMs not configured for backup by running an ARG query in PS: Sample query https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/query-backups-using-azure-resource-graph#list-all-azure-vms-that-have-not-been-configured-for-backup

Configure backup for VMs using Azure Backup PowerShell cmdlets: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-vms-automation

Note - If you are interested in using Azure Policy to meet the same requirement, we have built-in Azure Policies available for those: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-azure-auto-enable-backup

Hope this helps!
