Hello @SebastianGrugel-3246,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to answer your question.

With Azure VMware Solution, you can only configure a virtual machine (VM)-level backup using Azure Backup Server is also called as MABS which is is the version 2 of Data Protection Manager part of System Center. Hence you can refer to the DPM Support Matrix link : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/system-center/dpm/dpm-protection-matrix?view=sc-dpm-2019
