Hi,

we have DPM 2012 and its database on the same server. The OS got crashed.

we have rebuild the OS, freshly installed the DPM application. we have taken the DPMDB backup using SQL management studio earlier. we have restored the same database and found the DPM service is not starting and the DPM storage disks are showing missing.

I have seen the technet where there are different backup methods but i have simply taken the backup of DPMDB using SQL management studio, is it sufficient for the restore. please help.

Thanks

Sunny

Hi!

Have you tried using the DPMSync command to restore the database?

Reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/system-center/system-center-2012-R2/hh757907(v=sc.12)

1) DpmSync –RestoreDb -DbLoc D:\DPM\Backups\2018\June\DPMDB.bak

2) DpmSync -Sync

3) DpmSync -ReallocateReplica

Also have a look at the link below on how to recover a backed up DPM Server
https://technet.microsoft.com/nb-no/library/jj244595(v=sc.12).aspx

Best regards,
Leon

Hi Leon,

Thanks for the reply.

We have identified the issue. The DPM service was not starting after DB restore because the install rollup was different than the one earlier.

Identified the DPM rollup version using below query

Select distinct MajorVersionNumber,MinorVersionNumber ,BuildNumber, FileName FROM dbo.tbl_AM_AgentPatch order byMajorVersionNumber,MinorVersionNumber,BuildNumber

we have reinstalled the DPM application with proper rollup, restored the DB using SQL management studio, run DPMSync -Sync command. The DPM service is now started, console opened normally and showing all the recovery points.

Thanks
Sunny
