Installing DPM Management Shell
DPM Management Shell, based on Windows PowerShell, is an interactive command-line
technology that supports task-based scripting.
Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM) 2007 provides its own set of Windows
PowerShell commands that can be used in addition to DPM Administrator Console to perform
data protection management tasks. A DPM administrator can use DPM cmdlets to perform many
of the administrative tasks that can be performed in the console.
DPM Management Shell can be installed on computers other than the DPM server, enabling you
to administer multiple DPM servers remotely. You can also install DPM Management Shell on
desktop computers running Windows XP or Windows Vista.
Procedures
To install DPM Management Shell
1. Log on to the computer on which you want to install DPM Management Shell using a
domain user account that is a member of the local administrators group.
2. Insert the Microsoft Data Protection Manager 2007 product DVD in the DVD drive. If the
DPM Setup Wizard does not start automatically, double-click Setup.exe in the root folder
of the DVD.
-Or-
If you are installing DPM from a network share, navigate to the installation share and then
double-click Setup.exe in the root folder of the share.
3. On the Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2007 screen, click Install
DPM Management Shell.
Installing the DPM System Recovery Tool
The DPM System Recovery Tool (SRT) is software provided with DPM to facilitate bare metal
recovery for the DPM 2007 server and the computers that DPM protects. DPM SRT can be
installed on a DPM 2007 server or on a separate server.
When you install DPM SRT, you must specify the location for the primary file store, which will
contain the DPM SRT Recovery Points. We recommend that you place the primary file store on a
disk separate from the disk on which the operating system and DPM SRT are installed. If that is
not possible, you can place the primary file store on a separate volume on the same disk.
DPM SRT is not included on the DPM 2007 product DVD. It must be installed separately from the
DPM System Recovery tool CD. For more information about installing DPM SRT, see the topics
