DPM 2010
I need to be able to have BMR recovery on a SQL server. I have SQL auto protection working fine on the server. I have created a new BMR protection group for this server, but when the job starts all volumes are selected including the app drive
containing all of the SQL DB's. I would prefer not to duplicate these files as this will use a lot of diskspace.
I would like the ability to recover the server with all setting except the SQL DB files. Is there a way of achiving this.
Thank you
Hi Ccboyno,
Try the -exclude switch on the wbadmin.exe command. You have to modify the Bmrbackup.cmd on the DPM server to change this. See this link for more detailed instructions:
