DPM Server Software Prerequisites

The System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM) server must be a dedicated, single-purpose

server, and it cannot be either a domain controller or an application server. The DPM server

cannot be the management server for Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005 or Microsoft

System Center Operations Manager 2007.

Before you install DPM, you must install the following:

• Knowledge Base article 940349, "

Availability of a Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS)

update rollup package for Windows Server 2003 to resolve some VSS snapshot issues

"

(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=99034).

Note

After installing Knowledge Base article 940349 and then restarting the DPM server and/or

the protected server, we recommend that you refresh the protection agents in DPM

Administration Console. To refresh the agents, in the Management task area, click

the Agents tab, select the computer, and then in the Actions pane, click Refresh

information. If you do not refresh the protection agents, Error ID: 31008 may appear

because DPM only refreshes the protection agents every 30 minutes.

• Windows PowerShell 1.0 from

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=87007

.

• Single Instance Storage (SIS) on Windows Server 2008 operating system (Pre-release

version). For information about installing SIS on Windows Server 2008, see
