Restarting the DPM Server
Published : September 27, 2005
If you need to restart the DPM server for any reason, check the Monitoring task area in DPM Administrator Console for jobs currently running, and then follow these guidelines:
If there are no jobs currently running or scheduled to run during the time required for the restart, restart the DPM server.
If a synchronization with consistency check job is running, restart the DPM server. Synchronization with consistency check will resume at the next scheduled time or you can retry the job manually.
If a replica creation job is running, postpone the restart until the job is completed. If the restart cannot be postponed, you must run synchronization with consistency check manually for the replica after you restart the DPM server.
If any shadow copies or their corresponding synchronizations are scheduled to run during the restart, either postpone the restart until the shadow copies are created or re-run the synchronizations and create the shadow copies manually after you restart the DPM server.
