Restarting the DPM Server
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 synchronizations or express full backups are scheduled to run during the restart, either
postpone the restart until the recovery points are created or re-run the synchronizations and
create the recovery points manually after you restart the DPM server.
• If any jobs that use the tape library are running, postpone the restart until the jobs are
complete. If the restart cannot be postponed, the following job types will be canceled by the
restart and must be re-run after the restart:
• Back up to tape
• Copy to tape
• Recovery from tape
• Tape verification
• If you are erasing a tape, postpone the restart until the current job is complete. Cancel any
pending tape erase jobs, restart the computer, and then reschedule the canceled tape erase
jobs.

Moving the DPM Server to a New Domain
We recommend that you avoid changing the domain of the DPM server because doing so causes
all protection and recovery operations to fail.
If it essential that you change the domain membership of a DPM server, you must stop protection
of the protection group members assigned to that DPM server and then restart protection of those
data sources, either by adding them to protection groups on another DPM server or adding them
to new protection groups on the same DPM server after you change its domain.
