1 Data for applications running in virtual machines must be protected and recovered as an application data source, not as a component of a protected virtual machine. For example, to protect and recover data for an instance of SQL Server running on a virtual machine, you install the DPM protection agent on the virtual machine and select the data source as a SQL Server database. When you install the protection agent on the virtual host and protect a virtual machine on the host, application data is also protected but can be recovered only by recovering the virtual machine itself.
