Hi @San-9626

If you added data disk to VM after VM scheduled backup job then once previous backup job completes you should run backup job again for data disk VM backup.

Azure Portal -> Recovery Service Vault -> select backup vault -> Monitoring -> backup jobs

you can check VM backup status.

Hi,

In backup vault there is no option to view data disk is backed up. It shows status VM backup is completed.

@San-9626 , You can check which disks got backed up with the VM by looking at the Restore Point Collection.

  1. Go to Resource Group named AzureBackupRG_<location>_1 in the same subscription that you have your VM. This is the default RG where Recovery Points are stored. Might be be different based on what you have for "Azure Backup Resource Group" attribute in your Backup Policy.

  2. Click on the Restore Point Collection resource that belongs to the VM in question

  3. You should see Recovery Points for that VM and click on the latest one. The overview page of the Recovery Point will show you disks that are included in the Backup.
