Monitoring DPM Server

Applies To: System Center Data Protection Manager 2010

After you set up data protection, you should monitor DPM activity to verify that everything is working correctly and to troubleshoot any problems that occur. Monitoring is essential to give you an overview of what has already happened, what is currently happening, and what is scheduled to happen. By monitoring DPM, you will know that data protection activities are working as expected, and you will have confidence that errors and warnings will be brought to your attention when they occur.
