Hi I keep getting this error Standard policy not supported for Trusted VMs. Does this mean I am unable to back up my VM?

    Hi @Kevon Springer

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A Platform .

    And unfortunately , This is by design behavior :
    According to documentation, having "Security type: Trusted launch enabled "will not allow Backup and Azure Site recovery to work on that VM.

    Thanks & Regards,
