Prepare for a Hyper-V Agent deployment

Before installing a Hyper-V Agent, you must do the following:

      Obtain a Portal account for managing the Agent. See Portal for managing a Hyper-V Agent.

      Determine the destination vaults for Hyper-V backups. See Vaults for Hyper-V backups.

      Consider where to install Hyper-V Agent components to protect a Hyper-V standalone host or cluster. See Recommended deployment for protecting a Hyper-V standalone host and Recommended deployment for protecting a Hyper-V cluster.
