Move protected data between DPM-disks: MigrateDatasourceDataFromDPM

Hi everyone,

Here is an example on how I use the MigrateDatasourceDataFromDPM.ps1 when I want to consolidate protected data or just empty one disk in the DPM storage-pool.

The ntdiskid-number in the script is the number you can see in either the get-DPMDisk output, the Windows Disk Management GUI or under Management - Disks in the DPM-console.

In the example below I want to move all data from disk 1 to disk 3,5 and 6:

$source = get-dpmdisk -dpmserver MyDpmServer | where {$_.ntdiskid -eq 1} 

$destination = get-dpmdisk -dpmserver MyDpmServer  | where {3,5,6 -contains $_.ntdiskid} 

MigrateDatasourceDataFromDPM.ps1 -DPMServername MyDpmServer  -source $source -destination $destination
