Administrator Guide

net user administrator /active:yes
net user administrator <password>
10 On the Console VM, still logged in as the local administrator, open an elevated Windows PowerShell session, and run the following
script: "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Cloud Solutions\DeployDriver\BackupDeployDriver\BackupDeployDriver.ps1"
11 If the DPM server backs up the infrastructure VMs, update the server map.
a Log on to the APA VM—< Prex >APA01.
b Start Windows PowerShell.
c Run the following command, and note the result: (Get-SmaVariable -Name "dpm-congurationmap" -WebServiceEndpoint
https://localhost).value.PendingDPMServerMap
d If the command output is null, run the following command:
$variableName = "DPM-configurationmap"
$a = (Get-SMAVariable -Name $variableName -WebServiceEndpoint https://localhost).value
$a.PendingDPMServerMap = (Get-SmaVariable -Name "dpm-configurationmap" -
WebServiceEndpoint https://localhost).value.DPMServerMap
$a.DPMServerMap = $null
Set-SMAVariable -Name $variableName -value $a -WebServiceEndpoint https://localhost
12 To complete the deployment, run the Complete-Backup runbook.
13 Use the steps in Recovering a datasource to an alternate DPM server to recover VMs and databases that were protected by the DPM
server that was rebuilt.
Recovering the DPM database
1 Log on to the DPM VM, and ensure that the backup copies of the DPMDB database are stored at the path E:\DPMDBBackup.
2 On the DPM VM, open SQL Server 2014 Management Studio. Connect to the DPM server and instance which stores the DPM
database that you want to recover (for example, <Prex>DPM01\MSDPMDB).
3 Restore the DPM database by using the backup copy on the E:\ drive of the DPM VM. For more information, see the TechNet Library
article Restore and synchronize the DPM database with DPMSync.
4 On the DPM VM, open a command prompt with elevated permissions, and then run the DPMSync –sync command.
5 After the sync operation completes, all the data sources should be marked as inconsistent. In DPM, trigger a consistency check.
6 Wait for one scheduled backup to complete. Ensure that previous recovery points exist.
Adding extra disks to DPM
You can use the following procedure if you want to add more VHD disks to the DPM storage pool:
1 Use the VMM console to collect the following data:
a The DPM VM name.
b The volumes on which the DPM backup disks are located. To determine this:
1 In the VMM console, check the DPM VM properties. In the VMs and Services workspace, right-click the DPM VM, click
Properties, and then click the Hardware Conguration tab.
2 Under Bus Conguration, click each disk to see the locations of the backup VHDs. In the path of the VHDs, look for names
in the format < DPMName >Backup#.vhdx, and note the drive letter at the beginning of the path. All the VHDs are either I:
\, J:\, K:\ or L:\, M:\, and N:\ volumes. Make a note of the volumes that are used.
c The number of VHDs that you want to add.
d The starting number to use for the new VHDs. To determine this:
1 In the VMM console, click VMs and Services.
2 In the VMs and Services pane, click Storage.
