This alert is generated when DPM cannot start a recovery, a consistency check, or a replica creation job for the designated computer.
Causes
Review the alert details in Data Protection Manager (DPM) Administrator Console and take the appropriate action.
Possible causes for the alert include the following:
- A protection agent issue, including bad version or agent not
reachable
- Any VSS issues, such as problems with backing up data
- In a cluster scenario, after initialization of one node, if any
other node in the cluster is down, unreachable, and so on
Note |
---|
The job initialization failure also generates a "Replica inconsistent" alert. DPM will not perform the replica creation until all of the nodes in the cluster initialize successfully. |
Resolutions

Follow the recommended action in the alert to retry the job.
Resolved when: Protection for the designated computer is configured successfully; the protection job starts successfully.
