A backup administrator must enable guest file system indexing for a backup job of a Linux file server VM. All required credentials are added to the Veeam Backup & Replication server. VMware tools (VIX) cannot be used due to security regulations. What should be done to make it possible in the following environment?
To enable guest file system indexing for a Linux file server VM without using VMware Tools (VIX) due to security regulations, the Veeam Backup & Replication server must have connectivity to the VM network. This ensures that the backup server can communicate directly with the guest OS for indexing purposes. This is necessary because using the Linux proxy server as a guest interaction proxy is not a supported configuration in Veeam.
B is correct https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_proxy_requirements.html?ver=120 Linux backup proxies cannot be used for guest interaction.
It cannot be C. It is not possible to assign the role of Guest interaction proxy to a Linux machine

B Is correct.
B or C?
I think correct is B. Because de VM is Linux, not Windows.
I refer to the Linux proxy. Because Linux backup proxies cannot be used for guest interaction. https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/backup_proxy_requirements.html?ver=120
