Portal for managing a Hyper-V Agent

The Hyper-V Agent is managed using Portal.

Note: You cannot manage the Hyper-V Agent using Windows Agent Console.

You must have a Portal account before you install the Hyper-V Agent. The account can be on a Portal instance that is hosted by your service provider, or installed on-premises.

If your Portal instance is installed on-premises, ensure that the Portal database is backed up so that the Hyper-V environment can be fully restored in the event of a disaster. Information for the Hyper-V Agent, including vault and backup job information, is saved in the Portal database. See Recover jobs and settings from an offline Hyper-V Agent.
