Appendix B: DPM Schema Extension

The DPMADSchemaExtension tool performs the following tasks to support end-user recovery:

• Extends the schema
  
  
• Creates a container (MS-ShareMapConfiguration)
  
  
• Grants the System Center 2012 – Data Protection Manager (DPM) server permissions to change the contents of the container
  
  
• Adds mappings between source shares and shares on the replicas
  
  

This appendix describes the classes and attributes that DPM adds to Active Directory to support end-user recovery.
