Add option to backup VM with Shared Virtual Hard Disks.

With the current release of IBM Spectrum Protect for Hyper-V, VM's with Shared virtual disks cannot be backed-up (error message: ANS2552E Backup of a virtual machine that has a shared virtual hard disk is not supported.). Add an option similar like “VMPROCESSVMWITHPHYSDisks”. VMs that contain one or more Shared Virtual Hard disks are backed up. This option backs up the VM VHDX disks and the Shard Virtual Hard Disk configuration without backing up the data on the Shard Virtual Hard Disk.

    IBM has evaluated the request, and has determined that it can not be implemented at this time or does not align with the current multi-year strategy. Please consider opening this requirement against Spectrum Protect Plus.
