Establishing a Monitoring Schedule
Applies To: System Center Data Protection Manager 2010
After you begin protecting your data, DPM operations require little intervention from you. When a situation does require action, you will be informed by an alert. For information about responding to alerts, see Resolving Alerts (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=196772) in DPM 2010 Help. We recommend that you establish a monitoring schedule and follow it routinely so that you are aware of trends and troubleshooting issues, and so that you can respond quickly to any problems that require your attention. The following table lists suggestions for a monitoring schedule.
