    Hi all,

    we are running DPM 2010UR5 Protection Agent on a Win2008R2 Server with Exchange 2010.

    I have to upgrade the Agent in order to move backups to DPM 2012R2 UR1.Previously I wanted to uninstall the old Agent .

    Unfortunately there is no option in Control Center/Software to uninstall the Agent - it is just listed under Updates.

    Because of that I tried:
    "Msiexec /x {72BF00D8-53E0-1539-F523-4347082BCC11}" an

    "Msiexec /x {72BF00D8-53E0-1539-F523-4347082BCC11} /qn /REBOOT=ReallySupress"

    But i did not work either.
    So, what would be a good way to upgrade DPM 2010UR5 Agent to DPM 2012R2 UR1 Agent?

    Thanks in advane

    regards

    Thanks, we reactivated the Server and uninstalled the agents through the DPM console

    By the way uninstalling through DPM Console is not possible because the DPM Server is dead.

    Can you try something like this?

    $reg = Get-ItemProperty "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\*" | ? {$_.DisplayName -ne $null -and $_.DisplayName -like "*DPM Protection Agent*"}

    if ($reg -ne $null)
    {
     $pkey = $reg.PSChildName
     cmd.exe /q /c "start /wait msiexec /x $pkey /quiet"
    }

    Thanks.

    BTW, how can you determine that the agent is still installed when you can't see it on "Add/Remove programs" window?
