I have a few VMs with very large secondary disks that do not need to be backed up as often as I backup the primary disks. I know I can use the do not back up checkbox in the VM to not backup the secondary disk but I would rather not have to go through the hassle of scripting a custom backup job just for those specific VMs. It would be ideal if you could select which disks to back in the actual Datacenter/Backup menus. For example if you look at my screenshot below if there was another column to the right of Type called Disks and for each VM you could select from a dropdown checkbox what disks you want to backup with that job.
