Script to remove all datasources in Inactive Protection

After I moved several protected servers from one DPM server to another, I had a LOT of exchange storage groups left in the Inactive Protection that I wanted to get rid of.  Doing this  manually was very time consuming, and lots of clicks.  So, after a quick search, I found a script on the Ctrl P blog that does exactly what I needed to do!

Usage:

Remove-InactiveDatasource.ps1 -DPMServerName [DPMServername] -RemoveOption [Remove Options]

Run 'Remove-InactiveDatasource.ps1 -detailed' for detailed help

Attachment: Remove-InactiveDatasource.ps1

Welcome!

I use Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager 2007 on a daily basis, and although it is a great product, it takes a lot to master. I have created this blog to share my experiences with DPM with other System Administrators out there. All of my experience with DPM is in the role of protecting Microsoft Exchange 2007, and SQL server (the DPM database itself).

There have been many issues that I've run across, and not been able to find answers for on the Internet, so I'm going to "pay it forward" to the IT community!

Hope you find this blog informative!
