Disabling Protection for an Exchange Server 2007 SCR Server

  • Article

Applies To: System Center Data Protection Manager 2010

By disabling Exchange SCR protection on a server, all data sources using SCR protection on that DPM server are affected.
You can disable protection for the SCR server using Disable-ExchangeSCRProtection.ps1 on the DPM server.

Note

All scripts used in the procedure can be found under the <DPM Installation folder>\Bin folder of the computer on which the action is being performed. For example, if the script has to be run on the SCR server, the script is in .\Program Files\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\DPM\Bin. On the DPM server, the script is in .\Program Files\Microsoft DPM\DPM\Bin.
Scripts on the SCR server must be run in the Exchange Management Shell.

Syntax (standalone server): Disable-ExchangeSCRProtection.ps1 <DPMServerName> <ScrPSFQDN>
Example: Disable-ExchangeSCRProtection.ps1 DPMTest ExchangeSCR.contoso.com
Syntax (clustered server): Disable-ExchangeSCRProtection.ps1 <DPMServerName> <ResourceGroup>.<ClusterFQDN>
Example: Disable-ExchangeSCRProtection.ps1 DPMTest ExchangeSCRCluster.DRCLUSTER.contoso.com
