Purpose
This article documents how to exclude a Microsoft SQL Database from being processed by Application-Aware Processing. Note: Excluding a database from Application-Aware Processing only means it will not be processed as part of the VSS snapshot operation, and the database will not be frozen. The database files will still be backed up as part of the backup job if the disk(s) where the database is located are within scope of the backup job.
