From VmWare documentation page 37

Consolidated Backup supports a maximum of 60 concurrently mounted virtual

machines. For example, you can concurrently mount 60 virtual machines that have

a C: drive, or 30 virtual machines that have a C: and a 😧 each.

well... If he says mounted --> I think about virtual disks. Full image snapshots are not mounted, Full images snapshots are copied to vcb proxy local disc.

could you pls explain me the question?
