DPM 2012 R2 RU3 console crashes (v 4.2.1254.0)

Fresh install new server, OS is Windows 2012 R2. When adding an agent to a machine for backup purposes the DPM console crashes and restarts. Although the agent does install this seems broken. Anyone seen this yet?

Hi,
Check for the following:
The registry keys for the SqlAgentAccoutName and SchedulerJobOwnerName are incorrectly formatted using UPN syntax.
Resolution:
Change the following registry values from the
[email protected] format to domain\username:
Path: HKLM\software\Microsoft\Microsoft DPM\setup
Value names:  SchedulerJobOwnerName and SqlAgentAccountName

  • MMC crashes when attempting modification of a protection group in DPM 2012 SP1 RU3

    Hi All,
    I've got a problem with my DPM 2012 SP1 server for a few weeks now. It's backing up and restoring fine, but when I attempt to modify any protection group, the MMC crashes. This happens even before the modify protection group dialog is displayed, just a few
    seconds after clicking 'modify' with the protection group selected.
    it was running DPM 2012 SP1 RU1, is now running RU3, this update did not make the difference I was hoping for. Also installation of the DPM console on a remote management server results in the exact same problem.
    Below is the error message. Has anyone else had this or a similar problem and solved it?
    Thanks,
    Jacob

    Hi
    I had the same problem with Sharepoint backups, there was a problem with the protection group so i removed it and added it back. since then no issues.

  • DPM 2012 R2 UR4 Console Constantly Crashing

    I have a case open with Microsoft regarding this and despite working on it for a week straight, they haven't been able to figure out the problem.  I'm in the process of escalating it, but in the meantime I thought I'd see if anyone can help point us
    in some sort of direction.
    About two months ago I started seeing these console crashes, but they were very infrequent, maybe once or twice a week.  In the past 2-3 weeks, they have increased in frequency, occurring anywhere from every 5 minutes to once an hour.  The console
    only crashes when jobs are running.  I can't pinpoint any event that triggered these crashes, however, they seemed to increase in frequency after we had a power outage a few weeks ago.  Over the last week and a half, the crashes are so frequent that
    it is impossible to get any complete backups.  Microsoft support has examined the DPM logs, run SQL traces and made some tweaks as far as timeouts but the crashes continue.  They tell me the issue is that there are "timeouts" when DPM is
    connecting to its database.
    If anybody has any ideas, I'd love to hear them and I'd be happy to provide any more information.  We are in a really bad situation at this point.  We have 50 TB of data, so I really don't want to build a new server and start over.
    The follwing is the error in the Application Log which I see every time the console crashes:
    "The description for Event ID 940 from source MSDPM cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
    If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
    The following information was included with the event: 
    Unable to connect to the database because of a fatal database error. It is unlikely that the database itself has been damaged.  Review the event log and take appropriate action. Make sure that SQL Server is running.

    the message resource is present but the message is not found in the string/message table"

    It appears I've finally found what's causing this.  When we had our power outage a few weeks ago, one of our iSCSI NAS devices had a problem and we lost a volume for DPM.  We fixed it, but had to remove all the sources in DPM that had
    data stored on the problem volume, and added them back to the new volume we created.  
    Yesterday, I discovered that the problem volume was still showing in Windows Disk Management as missing even though it was completely gone from the DPM console.  On a hunch, I removed the missing volume from Disk Manager, DPM has been stable (going
    on 15 hours now.)
    As usual, it seems obvious now that I've found the problem...I just wish Microsoft could have pointed me in the right direction given all the logs and sql traces they've been examining.

  • SCSM 2012 R2 UR5 Console Crashes When Viewing Business Service Components

    I have an issue where a business service which has been synced from SCOM 2012 R2 into the CMDB I am unable to view the service components without the console crashing. This is occurring on all business services with service components present.
    The error message reported is:
    Microsoft.EnterpriseManagemnt.UI.DataModel.QueryFailedException: Query to adaptor 'dataportal:EnterpriseManagementRelationshipObjectAdaptor' Failed --->

    Has anyone seen this before?

    Our server has been upgraded to UR5, as well as most consoles. Each of them, including the one that is available on the Management Server, crashes when performing the above task.
    We installed the console + UR4 on a VM and the problem doesn't happen.
    On ALL affected consoles, each crash is recorded with this message in the OperationsManager log:

  • DPM 2012 R2 console crashes after install RU5 Solved

    Just to Share 
    The GUI might freeze in one of the following cases :
    Case1:
    You have never protected the DPM server’s System State, with the DPM server itself
    You have protected some System State from other Production Servers
    You upgrade to UR5
    You trigger an inquiry on the DPM Server itself
    Case2:
    You have a primary DPM server protecting the System State of a Production Server
    You have attached the primary DPM server to a secondary DPM server for Disaster Recovery
    You upgrade the secondary DPM server to UR5
    You trigger an inquiry on the
    primary DPM server in the secondary DPM server UI
    Then:
    The UI crashes, and gets hung if you start it again
    Cmdlets are also unresponsive
    Workaround:
    Stop all DPM services (MSDPM, Access Manager, DPM Writer, DPMRA, VssNullProvider)
    Open the SQL Server Management Studio (Either from Start Screen, or Run: ssms.exe)
    Connect to the SQL Instance holding the DPM DB
    Backup Your DPM Backup
    Right click the DPM DB and click on “New Query”
    Paste the following SQL script:
    DELETE
    FROM dbo.tbl_IM_ProtectedObject
    WHERE
    ProtectedObjectId IN
    SELECT PO.ProtectedObjectId
    FROM dbo.tbl_IM_ProtectedObject

  • DPM 2012 service crashes when creating a protection group

    DPM Server Setup:
    Windows Server 2012 Datacenter
    DPM 2012 SP1 RU3 (Version 4.1.3417.0)
    SQL Server Setup:
    Windows Server 2012 Datacenter
    SQL Server 2012 Standard (11.0.3128.0)
    DPM database is on a named instance on a custom port
    Windows firewall is completely open between DPM and SQL servers
    Whenever I create a protection group, when it gets to the stage of actually creating the group the DPM service crashes and the group isn't created. This happens whether creating from the console or the shell. The error is:
    Connection to the DPM service has been lost.
    Review the application event log for information about a possible service shutdown. Verify that the following services are not disabled:
                DPM
                DPM Replication Agent
                SQLAgent$SCDPM
                MSSQL$SCDPM
                Virtual Disk Service
                Volume Shadow Copy
    ID: 917
    The Windows error log has the following:

    Things I have tried:
    Changing username format as detailed here:

    Reinstalling DPM 2012 SP1

    We eventually got this resolved through Microsoft support.
    The issue for us was entering the AD domain as the FQDN on install. Apparently DPM doesn't work if it is authenticating with FQDN\username.
    The fix is to change the following registry setting:
    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Setup\SchedulerJobOwnerName
    To domain\username rather than domain.local\user (or [email protected], which also doesn't work). Alternatively, when you install DPM just put the netbios AD domain name rather than the FQDN.

  • MMC crashing when opening DPM 2012 management console

    Just like the subject says, the console crashes whether opening natively or if we try and add the DPM snap-in to mmc.exe. We get a generic 999 event being thrown that a dead end.
    The server is fully patched and everything worked through last Friday. Monday morning it was not. Backups are still being done but we don't have the console to visually check and would rather get that up than wrangle with powershell in the interim. We thought
    we would post here before re-installing to see if anyone had any suggestions. We've already tried restarting the service as some other threads have suggested.
    Here is an excerpt from the crash report:

    Hi
    SP1 for DPM 2012 might fix the issue.
    Here is a similar thread that applies to DPM 2007 but possibly the same as DPM 2012, possibly that the DPM service is crashing:

    We have updated the dpm agents on all of the servers that we back up by installing the update on the servers manually and according to the data in the DPM database it has acknowledged that they are indeed updated.
    From what I can tell from the errors is the console is attempting to read the updateprotectionstatus from the database and it is not returning a value and thus causing it to crash.  but I have no clue as to where this might be in the database to even
    check if it simply missing from an update gone wrong.  
    I did notice that the update attempted to install twice through windows update and failed.  The update does show as installed under installed updates in programs and features control panel
    Any help on this would be appreciated as it does make it difficult to manage our dpm server

    Hi,
    See if this is relevant.
    1. Take a DPMDB backup.
    2. Open SQL Management studio and connect to the DPM instance.
    3. Expand the DPM database and go to the table tbl_AM_Server.
    4. Edit the table, and under the "ServerName" column check for the DPM server name. It should be the FQDN. If it is the NetBIOS name then change it to the FQDN. 
    5. Try re-opening the DPM console and navigate to the management tab and see if that works now.

    You can attempt to rename the jobfilters.xml with the below steps. Please note renaming jobfilters.xml will remove all custom filters in place and they will need to be recreated.
    Log into DPM server with the user account the custom filter was created with. Ensure the DPM console is closed.
    From control panel select appearance---show hidden file and folders. Ensure for Hidden files and folders that the radio button is selected for Show hidden files, folders,
    and drives
    From windows explorer navigate to the following path
    <OS Install Path>\Users\ <account logged in with when DPM custom filter was created> \ AppData\Roaming\Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager\JobsFilter.xml
       4. Rename JobsFilter.xml to JobFilters_old.xml
       5. Open the DPM console.
        6. Navigate to Monitoring- Jobs we should see all custom filters are no longer in place. If so re-create pervious working filters if any.
    Option 2:
    Provide full DPMUI0Curr.errlog to assist with investigating further as it may contain errors on the crash.
    Log into DPM server with the user account the custom filter was created with.
    Take needed steps to reproduce the crash behavior.
    From control panel select appearance---show hidden file and folders. Ensure for Hidden files and folders that the radio button is selected for Show hidden files, folders,
    and drives
    From windows explorer navigate to the following path
    <OS Install Path>\Users\ <account logged in with when DPM custom filter was created> \ AppData\Roaming\Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 Data Protection Manager\DPMUI0Curr.errlog
       6. Open the DPMUI0Curr.errlog

  • DPM 2012 R2 Console crashes with ID: 917 error when trying to modify a Tape only protection group

    When I attempt to Modify one particular protection group, the console crashes with this:
    This only happens to this particular Protection group that backs up to long term Tape protection.  I have tried the work around found in this article
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2905631 , but had no success. 

    Hi,
    It sounds like you have a DPMDB inconsistency that is not possible to troubleshoot in a forum setting. Either restore the DPMDB from before the problem occurred and run dpmsync -sync  or open a support case so it can be diagnosed and corrected.

  • DPM console crashes 20 minutes into backup

    DPM 2012 Keeps Crashing - Backup to Tape Job
    We've had <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> 2012 SP1 running fine for a long time now, but just this week we've been having an issue with a particular backup to tape job.
    The job failed, and despite attempting to re-run the job again after running for 20 minutes or so, copying GBs of data the <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> Console Crashes
    Affected area: -
    Occurred since: 10/10/2013 13:26:18
    Description: The back up to tape job failed for the following reason: (ID 3311)
    More information
    Detailed Errors View Detailed Errors
    Recommended action: Run backup to tape job again...
    Resolution: To dismiss the alert, click below
    Inactivate
    The <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> service terminated unexpectedly during completion of the job. The termination may have been caused by a system reboot. (ID 910)
    The <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> Console (on the client) closes relating to the fact that it has no connection to the <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> 2012 Server and/or
    SQL Agents etc.
    On the <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> 2012 Server Event Log:
    Volume Shadow Copy Service error: A critical component required by the Volume Shadow Copy service is not registered. This might happened if an error occurred during Windows setup or during installation of a Shadow Copy provider. The error returned from CoCreateInstance

    The description for Event ID 999 from source MSDPM cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
    The <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> 2012 "click for more information" opens to the usual blank place-holder on Microsoft's website either stating the same error information, or not information at all.
    The <acronym title="Data Protection Manager">DPM</acronym> 2012 Server is up-to-date and has also been cold rebooted, but problem still occurs. SQL database problem perhaps?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi
    Is it only when 1 certain backup runs that the job fails?
    What Update level are you one on DPM?

  • DPM 2012 R2 Crashes after upgrade.

    I recently upgraded from DPM 2012 SP1 to DPM 2012 R2 Rollup 2.  The basic process was to backup the DB, uninstall DPM, upgrade the OS from 2008 R2 to 2012. Reinstall DPM 2012 SP1, restore the DB making sure everything works and then upgrade to
    DPM 2012 R2.  I did this on my primary server first which originally seemed to work well and then followed up on my secondary server. For whatever reason I had trouble on the secondary and ended up installing DPM clean on a new os and that server is working
    perfectly. On my primary however I am getting the following error 1 time each day.
    Event Log shows MSDPM Error ID 945
    It appears to be failing due to a missing stored procedure 'dbo.prc_SMTE_ComputeDailyTrend'.  The stored procedure does not exist on either of my DPM servers.  I'm guessing this is something hanging around in the DB from prior to the upgrade but
    I can't seem to track it down.

  • Console freez after install Rollup 5 for DPM 2012 R2

    Hello,
    first domain admin installed Update Rollup 5 for DPM 2012 R2. The DPM console freeze in "Monitoring" area in second domain admin. In first domain admin DPM console works good. Do anybody know where si problem?
    Thanks,
    Jakub

    Hello Cejka,
    The GUI might freeze in one of the the following cases :
    Case1:
    You have never protected the DPM server’s System State, with the DPM server itself
    You have protected some System State from other Production Servers
    You upgrade to UR5
    You trigger an inquiry on the DPM Server itself
    Case2:
    You have a primary DPM server protecting the System State of a Production Server
    You have attached the primary DPM server to a secondary DPM server for Disaster Recovery
    You upgrade the secondary DPM server to UR5
    You trigger an inquiry on the
    primary DPM server in the secondary DPM server UI
    Then:
    The UI crashes, and gets hung if you start it again
    Cmdlets are also unresponsive
    Workaround:
    Stop all DPM services (MSDPM, Access Manager, DPM Writer, DPMRA, VssNullProvider)
    Open the SQL Server Management Studio (Either from Start Screen, or Run: ssms.exe)
    Connect to the SQL Instance holding the DPM DB
    Backup Your DPM Backup
    Right click the DPM DB and click on “New Query”
    Paste the following SQL script:
    DELETE
    FROM dbo.tbl_IM_ProtectedObject
    WHERE
    ProtectedObjectId IN
    SELECT PO.ProtectedObjectId
    FROM dbo.tbl_IM_ProtectedObject
    AS PO
    JOIN dbo.tbl_AM_Server
    AS SRVR
    ON PO.ServerId
    = SRVR.ServerId
    WHERE (CONVERT(VARCHAR(4096),PO.ComponentName)
    = 'System State'
    OR CONVERT(VARCHAR(4096),PO.ComponentName)
    = 'Bare Metal Recovery')
    AND PO.ProtectedInPlan
    = 0
    AND PO.ProtectedObjectId
    NOT IN
    (SELECT
    ProtectedObjectId FROM
    dbo.tbl_IM_ProtectedObjectAlerts)
    AND LOWER(CONVERT(XML,PO.LogicalPath).value(
    '(/child::ArrayOfInquiryPathEntryType/child::InquiryPathEntryType[attribute::Type="Server"]/attribute::Value)[1]',
    'VARCHAR(4096)'
    )) !=
    LOWER(SRVR.ServerName)
    Press F5 to execute
    Start all DPM services
    The UI and cmdlets should work normally as before
