System Center 2012 Data Protection Manager RTM managing system protection

  • [アーティクル]

   Hi All :

    System protection aims to protect you against two scenarios – one where your computer starts, but you have lost system files and registry; and the other where the computer does not start and you have to recover everything. System Center 2012 – Data Protection Manager (DPM) enables you to protect your computer against both these scenarios.

    In the past, disaster recovery entailed rebuilding a computer from scratch. This meant installing the operating system, applying updates, installing applications, and then finally recovering data. This was a laborious and error-prone method. DPM saves you the time and trouble of rebuilding your system.

    In DPM, System State protection consists of protecting the operating system files, and bare metal recovery (BMR) protection consists of protecting the operating system files and all data except user data on critical volumes.

    DPM uses Windows Server Backup (WSB) to perform System State backup and BMR backup. For recovery, DPM will retrieve the backups and you will use the backup data to perform recovery by using WSB.

Prerequisites

  • Windows Server Backup installed on the protected computer for BMR.
  • Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) for BMR.

Unsupported Scenarios

The following scenarios are not supported for BMR:

  • Computers running Windows Server 2003.
  • Computers running client operating systems like Windows XP or Windows Vista or Windows 7.
  • A DPM server cannot protect itself for BMR.
  • Disk-Tape protection is not supported for BMR. However, long-term to tape with short-term to disk (D-D-T) is supported.

   On the install windows step , click Repair your computer , and will into Re-image your computer step , assign BMR files path (this path should be a network path):

    Hi Justin - I have seen conflicting info on Bare Metal Recovery option for server 2003.  Some sites say its supported while other say its not.  Can you confirm if its supported on server 2003 / 2003 r2.  If not is there a alternate option or plugin available?  I see references to the DPM SRT for server 2003 BMR's.   Please advise. -Lance
