Description

The Disable-DPMProductionServer cmdlet disables the System Center - Data Protection Manager (DPM) protection agent on a computer. After you disable a DPM protection agent, backup jobs for the computer do not run.

Examples

Example 1: Disable a protection agent

PS C:\>$DpmServer = Get-DPMProductionServer -DPMServerName "DpmWest01" | Where {$_.Name -eq "dist01.contoso.com"}
PS C:\> Disable-DPMProductionServer -ProductionServer $DpmServer

The first command gets the DPM protection agent on the computer named dist01.contoso.com for the DPM server named DpmWest01. The command stores the result in the $DpmServer variable.

The second command disables the protection agent stored in $DpmServer.
