  DPM 2010 - DPM Power shell commands may fail with ArgumentOutOfrangeException after WFM 3.0 update

  Mike JacquetMicrosoft Employeevendredi 22 février 2013 00:34

  Please be aware that if you installs either of the following WMI updates on a DPM 2010 server, that some DPM power shell scripts may no longer work.

  Some scripts will fail with an ArgumentOutOfrangeException.  I believe that Pruneshadowcopies2010.ps1 is one such script that will fail which result in recovery points not getting deleted.

  DPM 2012 support for Windows Server 2012

  Mike JacquetMicrosoft Employeejeudi 4 octobre 2012 21:57

  Hello everyone,

  System Center DPM 2012 is not supported running on Windows Server 2012 until we release System Center SP1 later this year.  We have had reports of DPM 2012 console crashes when navigating to the recovery tab if DPM 2012 is installed on Windows server 2012.  This issue is fixed in SP1.

  If you are already in this condition,  I recommend you backup the DPMDB, rebuild the DPM server using Windows 2008 R2 install DPM 2012, then restore your current database. The process is explained in the below technet article.

  Recovering DPM servers
  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj244606.aspx

  We also do not support protecting Windows Server 2012 using SCS DPM 2012 until after SC SP1 is released.   Please do not expect any support for DPM 2012 running on Windows Server 2012, or issues while protecting data sources in Windows Server 2012.
