How to Show All Recovery Points

Applies To: System Center Data Protection Manager 2010

You can use the following DPM procedure to display a list of all available versions for a selected recovery point, select the version that you want to recover, and then recover the data.

Note

Recovery jobs take priority over synchronization jobs. If a synchronization job is running or is scheduled to start while a recovery job is running, the synchronization job will be canceled. The next scheduled synchronization job will run as scheduled.

To show all recovery points

  1. In DPM Administrator Console, click Recovery on the navigation bar.

  2. Browse or search for any version of the data that you want to recover, and then select the data.

  3. In the Recovery time field, select a recovery time from the drop-down menu.

  4. In the Recoverable item pane, click the item you wish to recover.

  5. In the Actions pane, click Show all recovery points.

  6. In the All versions dialog box, select the data that you want to recover and then click Recover.

    This opens the Recovery Wizard and starts the recovery job. Click Help if you need assistance. Click Close when the recovery is complete.

To show all recovery points using DPM Management Shell

  • Use the following syntax to retrieve all recovery points:

    Get-RecoveryPoint [-Datasource] <Datasource> [-Async] [-Verbose] [-Debug] [-ErrorAction <ActionPreference> ] [-ErrorVariable <String> ] [-OutVariable <String> ] [-OutBuffer <Int32> ]Get-RecoveryPoint [-Tape] <Media> [-Verbose] [-Debug] [-ErrorAction <ActionPreference> ] [-ErrorVariable <String> ] [-OutVariable <String> ] [-OutBuffer <Int32> ]
