Important
Although volumes on file servers are typically formatted as NTFS, which is required for
DPM protection, it is not uncommon for volumes on workstations to be formatted as FAT
or FAT32. To protect these volumes, you must convert them to NTFS. For instructions,
see How to Convert FAT Disks to NTFS (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83022).
