Message

The DPM database (DPMDB) size has exceeded the threshold limit.

DPM database size: <DPMDBSize> GB

DPM database location: <DPMDBLocation> on <ServerName>.

User Action

The DPM database (DPMDB) size cannot be reduced. To resolve this alert, you need to increase the free space in the DPMDB volume, or increase the alert threshold value in the tape catalog retention dialog. If the tape catalog is very large, reducing the size of the tape catalog may ensure that DPM database does not grow any further.

SharePoint

You may see this warning if you are protecting a large SharePoint farm with millions of items in it. Ensure that you have enough disk space on the DPM database volume for the database to grow.
