DPM protection agent service	The component of DPM that synchronizes replicas of protected data with the data sources. The DPM protection agent service receives changes to protected data from the servers and applies the changes to the replicas on the DPM server.
DPM service	The core component of DPM. The DPM service manages all core DPM operations, including replica creation, synchronization, and shadow copy creation.
DPM Writer service	A service that manages backup shadow copies of DPM replicas, and backups of the DPM and Report databases, for purposes of data archival. The DPM Writer service is invoked by the DpmBackup command-line tool.
DPMADSchemaExtension	A command-line tool that enables a schema administrator to configure Active Directory for the purpose of enabling end-user recovery.
DpmBackup	A command-line tool that enables an administrator to archive the contents of a DPM server by using tape backup software that is not specifically designed for use with DPM.
DPMDBReaders group	A group, created during DPM installation, that contains all accounts that have read-only access to the DPM database. The DPMReport account is a member of this group.
DpmPathMerge	A command-line tool that removes extraneous path information from data that has been restored to a DPM server from tape.
DPMReport account	The account that the Web and NT services of SQL Server Reporting Services use to access the DPM database. This account is created when an administrator configures DPM reporting.
DpmSync	A command-line tool that provides disaster recovery functionality for DPM. DpmSync restores the DPM database and the Report database, and synchronizes the DPM database with the state of the storage pool and the installed DPM File Agents.
end-user recovery	A feature that enables an end user to independently recover data by retrieving a shadow copy. This feature requires the shadow copy client software.
enterprise license	A license that authorizes protection of both file and application resources on a single computer.
entry pruning	The process of removing entries from the catalog.
express full backup	A synchronization operation in which the protection agent transfers a snapshot of all blocks that have changed since the previous express full backup (or initial replica creation, for the first express full backup).
fast inventory	The reading of the barcode of each tape in the library.
free tape	A tape that is available to be written to by operations such as backup or copy.
FsPathMerge	A command-line tool that removes extraneous path information from data that has been restored to a protected file server from tape.
imported tape	A tape that contains content that was created by another DPM server.
insert/eject port	A port in a library that transports tapes to and from library slots.
MsDpmProtectionAgent.exe	The protection agent service.
MsDpmSnAgent.exe	The storage node agent service.
MSDPMTrustedMachines group	A group that contains the domain accounts for file servers that are authorized to communicate with the DPM server. DPM uses this group to ensure that only file servers that have the DPM File Agent installed from a specific DPM server can respond to calls from that server.
primary DPM server	A DPM server that protects file or application data sources.
protected computer	A computer that contains data sources that are protection group members.
protected member	A data source within a protection group.
