    DPM 2012 SP1 Protecting Sharepoint using SQL 2012 Always On AG as backend is not currently supported.
    Mike Jacquet

    When you try to protect a Windows SharePoint farm using SQL 2012 Always On AG backend using System Center Data Protection Manager 2012 Sp1, you receive one of the following error messages:

    ERROR
    =====
    DPM cannot protect this SharePoint farm because DPM did not detect any dependent databases to be protected. (ID: 32008) Verify that the appropriate SQL Server VSS writers are enabled on the computers hosting the SharePoint databases.


    This Windows SharePoint Services farm cannot be protected because DPM did not find any dependent databases and search indices to be protected. (ID: 32008) 1) Verify that the appropriate SQL Server VSS Writers on the computers hosting the Windows SharePoint Services databases are enabled. 2) Verify that the Windows SharePoint Services Search VSS Writers are enabled on the computers where the search indices are.

    CAUSE
    =====
    At this time using SQL 2012 availability groups (AG) for Sharepoint back end is not supported by DPM 2012 Sp1.  We will have some public facing content on the limitation shortly.  I cannot say at this time if this will be fixed in a future DPM 2012 rollup, it needs to be investigated by the product group.
