Installation instructions

This Data Protection Manager 2010 rollup package consists of three separate updates. To install each update, follow these steps:

1. Install the rollup package on the server that is running Data Protection Manager 2010. To do this, run the DataProtectionManager2010-KB2465832.exe file on the server.
   
   Note You do not have to restart the Data Protection Manager server after you install this rollup package.
2. Update the remote Microsoft SQL Server installation that is hosting the DPMDB database. To do this, as appropriate, run either the 32-bit or the 64-bit SqlPrep-KB2465832.msp file on the computer that is running SQL Server.
   
   Note This step is not required if you are running a SQL Server DPMDB instance on the Data Protection Manager 2010 server.
3. In the DPM Administrator Console, update the protection agents. To do this, use one of the following methods.
   
   Method 1: Update the protection agents from the DPM Administrator Console

      Note You do not have to restart the computer to update the agent. This is why the Manually restart the selected servers later option was selected.
      
   Method 2: Update the protection agents on the protected computers
   1. Obtain the update protection agent package from the "Data Protection Manager installation location\DPM\Agents\RA\3.0.7707.00" directory on the Data Protection Manager 2010 server.
      • For x86-based updates: i386\1033\DPMAgentInstaller_KB2465832.exe

      Note The DPMAgentInstaller.exe package applies to all languages.
   2. Run the appropriate DPMAgentInstaller.exe package on each protected computer.
   3. Open the DPM Administrator Console on the Data Protection Manager 2010 server.
   4. Click the Management tab, and then click the Agents tab.
   5. Select the protected computers, and then verify that the agent version is listed as 3.0.7707.00.
4. Run the DPMManagementShell2007-KB2465832.msp file on any computer that is used to manage the Data Protection Manager 2010 server.
   
   Note This step is not required if you are running the Data Protection Manager Management Shell on the Data Protection Manager 2010 server.

Restart information

If the DPM Management Shell is open when you install the hotfix rollup package, you must restart the computer. Otherwise, a restart is not required.

Additional installation information

After the server has restarted, use these methods to initialize the hotfix package:

• For custom DPMRA ports: Run the setAgentCfg.exe on the Data Protection Manager 2010 server by using a valid production server FQDN and port number.
• For the IBM Library and others: Add the following registry key and value:
  Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\AgentDWORD: RSMCompatMode
  Value: 29 (Decimal)
  
• The administrator of a client computer must set the name of non-admin users who have to have permissions to perform end-user recovery of protected data of a client computer. To do this, the administrator must add the following registry key and value for each of these non-admin users. This is single key that contains a comma-separated list of client users. You do not have to add this key separately for each non-admin user.  
  
  Registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Agent\ClientProtectionREG_SZ: ClientOwners
  Value: Names of non-admin users. This should be a comma-separated list of user names without any leading or trailing spaces, as in the following example: domain1\user1,domain1\user2,domain1\user3 (and so on)
