Hello
Thank you for your question and reaching out. I can understand you are having issues related to DPM.
- Increase the allocated replica volume size by using the modify the disk allocation wizard from the DPM GUI. Run a full consistency check.
- WSB bare metal recovery (BMR) backups use Volume Shadow Snapshots on the System Recovery and EFI Partitions. Ensure these resources have at least 320MB of free space for Volume Shadows Snapshots (VSS).
- Do not run WSB on the protected 2012 server -only manage backups from DPM. Individual backups run from WSB modifies the backup catalog and VSS volume associations -DPM backups begin to fail. Steps to correct:
-Use Vssadmin and/or Diskshadow to delete all local snapshots on protected 2012 member.
-Delete WSB catalog from protected 2012 server: wbadmin delete catalog
-Perform consistency check from DPM.
Manually increase the size of the Replica volume. DPM does not calculate an appropriate replica size for bare metal backups. Microsoft recommends:
