DPM (Data Protection Manager)
Monitoring DPM First was a blur to us. To monitor all jobs wasn't the best thing as a multi instance datasource as the jobs were so many the monitoring of them could potentially use all of the backup server compute power.
We also tried the batch script collector but we never got that to work for some reason. Then we took a step back sat down and thinking. We don't actually need to see all jobs. It's quite enough just to see which server got problems. So, i wrote this datasource (it's a multi instance datasource) that collect all computer objects and then for each object checks DPM Alerts and send it out to a custom message.
Please enjoy,
