How to Install Windows Server 2003
You must properly configure Windows Server 2003 to support a System Center Data Protection
Manager (DPM) 2007 installation. If Windows Server 2003 is not installed on your computer, for
more information about purchasing and installing Windows Server 2003, go to the Microsoft
Windows Server Web site (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=64826).
Perform the following procedure to specify nondefault settings during an installation of Windows
Server 2003 on a DPM server.
Procedures
To install Windows Server 2003
1. When Setup prompts you to format the Windows installation partition, choose the NTFS
file system.
2. In the Computer Name dialog box, type a name for the DPM server. The name must be
unique within the Active Directory domain.
3. In the Workgroup or computer domain dialog box, add the DPM server to the domain
that contains the computers that you plan to protect.
You can install DPM across domains within a forest if you establish a two-way trust
across the domains. If there is not a two-way trust across domains, you must have a
separate DPM server for each domain. DPM 2007 does not support protection across
forests.
