DPM Server Prerequisites

  • DPM 2007 SP1. Additionally, we recommend that you install the latest DPM 2007 SP1 hotfixes.

  • At least 2 GB of space on the volume in which the DPM folder is present for every 10 million items. This is required for catalog generation.

This list of URLs is displayed on the recoverable item pane in the DPM Administrator console.
