    Hi,

    Did you download and register the SQLDMO.DLL ?  I would open an administrative command prompt and CD to the folder that contains the DLL and then run: Regsvr32 sqldmo.dll

     

    Querying SQL Server information.

    The SQLDMO object is required to query SQL Server information by using integrated authentication by using your current user credentials.
     To download, click the
    SQLDMO.DLL file, copy it to a directory and then register it. To register the SQLDMO.DLL file, click Start, click Run, type regsvr32 SQLDMO.DLL, and then click OK.

    After registering it, run cscript DPMvolumeSizing.VBS /sql: SQL-instance1

    It seems that that package http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?DisplayLang=en&id=9245 to download the SQLDMO.DLL does not contain that file, so registration fails.  Not sure where else to get that file.
