Data Protection Manager で気になってた (見て見ぬふりをしていた)、Hyper-V 仮想マシンの Offline または Online タグ が UR9 で削除され、すっきり。

仮想マシンに付く Offline と Online タグはもともと、オンライン バックアップ中に仮想マシンが停止状態になるか、無停止かを示すものでしたが、いろいろと仕様が変更になっていて Offline でも無停止でバックアップできるものがあり、実体を示していませんでした。

Removing the Offline/Online tag from Hyper-V VM name in the DPM UI

DPM used to display an Offline/Online tag to the VM name for Hyper-V VMs. This was intended was to notify users about whether the VM was paused during backup or was always online. However, this behavior was confusing for the customers because the tag was static and it was determined during first inquiry and not updated later. Moreover, for Hyper-V 2012 R2, the VMs will never be interrupted during backups as per the Hyper-V changes mentioned here.

The Offline/Online tag has been removed, and we now display only the Hyper-V VM name. This behavior applies to all existing PGs as well as to new PGs.
