RDM virtual disks in virtual mode are supported to create backups based on VMware Changed Block Tracking technology, although there are some restrictions on the virtual disk restore operation. Network shares and mount points targeted to 3rd party storage devices are also skipped as these volumes/disks are not visible in the VM configuration file. If backup of these disks is required, use agent-based backup.

RDM virtual disks in physical mode, independent disks, and disks connected through in-guest iSCSI initiator are not supported for host-based backup, and are skipped from processing automatically.

To protect such VMs, use agent-based backup.
