Hi Guys,

I would like to make a BMR back-up with DPM 2012.

I have installed the WSB feature on the member to protect.

Unfortunately, i am able to select only the system state option. The Bare Metal Recovery option is not listed.

Anyone an idea? 

Greetings,

Tyn

i am afraid that the reason might be that the member to protect is a workgroup server.
