Disk space for DPM
installation
• Program files drive: 410 megabytes (MB).
• Database files drive: 900 MB.
• System drive: 2650 MB.
Note
The system drive disk space requirement
is necessary if you chose to install the
instance of SQL Server from the DPM
download package. If you are using an
existing instance of SQL Server, this disk
space requirement is considerably less.
• 2–3 GB of free
space on the
program files
volume
Note
DPM requires
a minimum of
300 MB of
free space on
each
protected
volume for
the change
journal.
Additionally,
before
archiving
data to tape,
DPM copies
the file
catalog to a
DPM
temporary
installation
location;
therefore, we
recommend
that the
volume on
which DPM is
installed
contains 2–3
GB of free
space.
Disk space for
storage pool

• 1.5 times the size of the protected data.
