Before you can start protecting data, you must create at least one protection group. For
guidelines about protection groups, in Planning a DPM 2007 Deployment, see Planning
Protection Groups (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91849).
The Create New Protection Group Wizard guides you through the process of creating a protection
group. Protection group creation involves making a series of decisions about how you want to
configure the group.
Throughout the protection group creation process, the wizard provides default options that you
can override if you choose.
