The answer from Copilot Azure Backup supports a wide range of operating systems, including various versions of Windows Server and Linux distributions like Debian. Additionally, backups can be performed on VMs that are either running or shut down. Azure Backup does not support backing up client operating systems like Windows 10. It is primarily designed for server operating systems and certain Linux distributions.

Copilot it's very helpfull but don't think that is God. Often it's wrong. Windows 10 is supported https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/backup/backup-support-matrix-iaas I use copilot too, and it give me the same response that it gave to you. I reported the error and he answer as follow: " You’re right, and I apologize for the confusion. According to the Azure Backup support matrix, Azure Backup does support backing up VMs running Windows 10. Here are the correct options: A. VMs that run Windows 10: Supported. B. VMs that run Windows Server 2012 or higher: Supported. D. VMs that run Debian 8.2+: Supported. E. VMs that have been shut down: Supported, with the backup being crash-consistent. Both running and shut down VMs can be backed up, so Option C is also technically correct, but it doesn’t add new information since both states are supported. Thank you for pointing that out! If you have any more questions or need further clarification, feel free to ask"

The correct answers are: B. VMs that run Windows Server 2012 or higher D. VMs that run Debian 8.2+ E. VMs that have been shut down Explanation: Windows Server 2012 or Higher: Azure Backup supports virtual machines running Windows Server 2012 or newer versions. This includes operating systems with official support for Azure Backup services. Debian 8.2+: Azure Backup supports Linux distributions like Debian 8.2 and above. The OS compatibility must meet Azure Backup's requirements. Shut Down VMs: Azure Backup can back up virtual machines, even if they are shut down. The backup process uses Azure's snapshot feature, which does not require the VM to be running. Incorrect Options: A. VMs that run Windows 10: Azure Backup does not support Windows 10 VMs for backup. C. VMs that have NOT been shut down: This is a valid condition for backup, but it doesn't exclude shut down VMs. Both running and shut down VMs can be backed up.

The question only states "Which of the following VMs can you back up?" so in this case B, C, D, E should be selected but A since that is a client OS.

Actually Win 10 here is not supported as the question does not specify that is 64 bits, as 32 is not supported I would answer BCDE.

Selected Answer: BDE
OS Support: Windows Server 2012 or higher: Supported. Debian 8.2+: Supported as Azure Backup supports a variety of Linux distributions, including Debian 8.2 and later versions. VM power state is NOT a problem. Azure Backup can back up stopped VMs. The process captures the latest state of the disk(s). So the answer "VMs that have NOT been shut down" While this is technically possible, it is not relevant to the question since Azure Backup works for both running and stopped VMs. The option focuses on whether "not being shut down" is a prerequisite, which it is not.

Correct answer: BDE For Azure Backup with a Recovery Services vault, the following VMs can be backed up: B. VMs that run Windows Server 2012 or higher. Azure Backup supports Windows Server 2012 and higher (including Windows Server 2016 and 2019). These versions are fully supported for backup to an Azure Recovery Services vault​ D. VMs that run Debian 8.2+. Azure Backup supports several Linux distributions, including Debian 8.2 and above. This ensures that VMs running these versions of Linux can be backed up using Azure Backup​ E. VMs that have been shut down. Azure Backup can back up VMs even if they are shut down, as long as they are in a stopped (deallocated) state. This makes it possible to back up a VM without having it running, which is useful for cost-saving and backup scheduling

B. VMs that run Windows Server 2012 or higher: Azure Backup supports Windows Server 2012 or higher versions for VM backup. D. VMs that run Debian 8.2+: Azure Backup supports Linux-based VMs, including Debian 8.2 and higher versions. E. VMs that have been shut down: Azure Backup can back up VMs even if they have been shut down, as long as they are not deallocated (stopped but not deleted). Explanation for the others: A. VMs that run Windows 10: Azure Backup does not support the backup of VMs running client operating systems like Windows 10. C. VMs that have NOT been shut down: This option is misleading because VMs can be backed up whether they are running or shut down, as long as they are not deallocated. So the correct answers are B, D, and E.

I found this information: After enabling backup: The Backup service installs the backup extension whether or not the VM is running. An initial backup will run in accordance with your backup schedule. When backups run, note that: A VM that's running has the greatest chance for capturing an application-consistent recovery point. However, even if the VM is turned off, it's backed up. Such a VM is known as an offline VM. In this case, the recovery point will be crash-consistent. Explicit outbound connectivity isn't required to allow backup of Azure VMs. Maybe it can be helpful.
