Suppressing Specific Task Messages

Is there any way to suppress specific task messages in V-Center? We are currently planning on rolling out a pair of ESX 4 hosts to approximately 75 retail branch locations. Veeam Backup and Replication will be deployed at each location to provide DR services. Since the data will be extremely time sensitive, we're looking to do 15 minute replica sets using changed block tracking. The problem I'm faced with is the amount of messages that will stream into V-Center when Veeam does its magic. Each location will have approximately 5 VM's that will require replica sets. Each VM creates 3 messages in V-Center every time the job is executed.

- Create virtual machine snapshot

- Remove snapshot

- Reload virtual machine

When I extrapolate those numbers, it eqautes to roughly 4500 messages every hour. That's just a lot of noise we really don't need. Ideally, I'd like to filter the message based on a specific user account. This will enable us to see similar messages created manually. However, I am open to any alternatives.

TIA for any insight and assistance.
