Hummm - looks like you are running a command line and then loading PowerShell into it.
Can you try loading the "DPM Management Shell" from the start menu (elevated if you are running UAC). The just the command "remove-productionserver.ps1" At let it prompt you for each item.

I have a DPM 2010 server where a client computer was retired before being removed from DPM. The server name was reused. DPM still shows the server as having the client, but not protected. How can I convince DPM to forget about that server? The only two things I can find under the context menus are "disable protection" and "remove client". The latter sounds promising, but when I try it, it wants to uninstall the client agent from the client computer, and it fails because the agent is not installed on the computer. Is it just me, or does DPM seem to go out of its way to make things difficult?
