How to Backup Hyper-V in a clustered environment

Exact Error Message
Virtual Node will not show the Virtual machines in the selection list for Hyper-V clusters

How to Backup Hyper-V in a clustered environment

Hyper-V application is not clustered however  the guest machines hosted by Hyper-V are in a cluster.
Backup Exec needs Hyper-V application running to query the guest machines hence  should be  backed up from the active node.

Note: Virtual Node will not display the virtual machines in the selection list. Please refer to the Backup Exec Software compatibility list in the Related Documents Section

Hyper-V application is not clustered but the guest machines on Hyper-V are clustered.
