Disabling file threat protection for virtual machines

To disable virtual machine protection:

1. In the policy properties, select the Protected infrastructure subsection.
2. If you want to disable protection for one or multiple virtual machines:
   1. In the table, select one or more virtual machines.

      If you want to disable protection for all virtual machines that are child objects of a single virtual Datacenter, select this Datacenter in the table. You can simultaneously select multiple virtual machines or other virtual infrastructure objects in the table by holding down the CTRL key.

   2. Click the Select protection profile button.

      The Selecting protection profile window opens.

   3. Select the Do not use protection profile option.
   4. If you selected a Datacenter, protection will be disabled by default for all virtual machines within it, including virtual machines that have been assigned their own protection profile. If you want to disable protection only for those virtual machines that inherit the protection profile from the parent object, clear the Apply to all child objects check box.
   5. Click OK.

      The Selecting protection profile window closes. In the table in the Protected infrastructure subsection, the value shown in the Protection profile column for virtual machines that have been excluded from protection is (Not assigned).

3. If you want to disable protection for all virtual machines in your virtual infrastructure, clear the Use File Threat Protection check box located in the upper part of the window.
4. In the Properties: <Policy name> window, click OK.
