      I have a backup job for two 2019 servers and one old Windows8.1 workstation.

      The Xen guest tools do not appear to work on the 8.1 workstation (due to age I guess) so the health check fails.

      Is it possible to exclude a single VM from health checks as I do want to the 2019 servers to run a health check after the backups.

        I make it the other way, I add a tag for the VM I want a health check to happen, and no tag if I don't want a health check.

        Then, in the backup's schedule, I add my tag:

            That's indeed a solution. We could also maybe "revert" the condition for people with like 500 VMs to healthcheck except one.
