      • Non-Azure resources: Resources that exist outside the scope of Azure's management. They are not under the direct control of Azure services. Non-Azure resources might include on-premises servers, third-party cloud services, or any infrastructure not governed by Azure's management framework. Managing non-Azure resources might require separate tools and processes.
    • Job source:
      • Protected items: Use this option to view jobs that are associated with a protected item. For example, backup jobs, restore jobs, test failover jobs, etc.
      • Other: Use this option to view jobs that are associated with a different entity For example, Azure Site Recovery jobs like the network, replication policy etc.
