Moving DPM_SYSTEM_STATE folder

DPM Server 2007 when monitoring a server will create the DPM_SYSTEM_STATE folder in the default system driver. You could move the folder to another location using some basic steps.

On the Protected Server:Edit the %system drive%\Program Files\Microsoft Data ProtectionManager\DPM\Datasources\PSDataSourceConfig.xml file.

You will find the default the path is %system drive%\ in the tag ""

Change it to a new location (another drive) and save the XML file.

On the DPM Server: Run Consistency Check on the System State data source.
