Back to basics: did you run SetDPMServer on the server you are protecting after 
you installed the new agent?

Subject: RE: DPM issue - change agent protection from one DPM to another

The primary and secondary replicas were removed days ago.  There are no visible 
references to the server I am trying to protect.  I have also rebooted both DPM 
servers in an attempt to somehow refresh the information so the DPM server 
would not think it is still protecting something it isn't.

Is there someplace "hidden" that DPM holds records that need to be cleared?

You've still got replicas from the initial protection group on DPM1. You have 
to remove them.

Subject: DPM issue - change agent protection from one DPM to another


o    Scenario - Two DPM2010 servers at different geographic locations - DPM0 
and DPM1.  DPM0 was protecting a volume on Server1.  DPM1 was protecting 
replica of Server1 from DPM0.  Server 1 is now at the location of DPM1.  
Uninstalled client from Server1 and installed client from DPM1. Removed 
protection of Server1 from DPM0 and deleted the inactive replica.

Now I cannot configure DPM1 to protect Server1 due to errors.   ID148 and ID 
31162

ID 148 - "You have chosen to protect replicas on another DPM server (Primary 
DPM server)........"

ID 31162 - "One or more of the selected data sources are already configured for 
protection on the primary DPM server"

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the agent a couple of times.  My guess is 
that somehow DPM0 is still telling DPM1 that it is protecting Server1, but it 
is not.  To the best of my knowledge, the DPM servers are fully up-to-date with 
DPM QFEs.

Hoping someone here can help.  While searching, I found a few similar issues, 
but no apparent fixes.  I really don't want to spend my day on the phone with 
PSS.  Also going to hop over to MyItforum to see what I can find.

Thanks,

BF
