J:\, K:\ or L:\, M:\, N:\ volumes of backup host. There should be 20 disks in this format (unless you added more).
19 On the DPM VM, in Disk Management (
diskmgmt.msc), check that all VHDs are in an Online state. (If not, right-click, and then click
Online.)
20 In the DPM Administrator console, add the disks to the DPM storage pool. For information about how to do this, see Congure

Online.
d On the ribbon, in the
Online Protection group, click Register, and complete the wizard .
