Hello everybody,
a fresh install of DPM 2019 on Windows Server 2019 Datacenter shows all VMs on a freshly installed Windows Server 2019 Datacenter Hyper-V host, and it backs them up just fine. However, DPM offers a strange VM named "Th-VM" which does not exist, which we did never create, and whose name would be far away from our VM naming standards. So if we choose Hyper-V auto-protection for that host, DPM tries to backup that VM and, of course, fails doing so. We can run backups fine if we uncheck both Auto-Protection and that strange VM. A refresh of the host in the DPM protection group wizard (having the host not expanded in the tree) still shows up this "Th-VM" VM.
Why does DPM offer us a VM which does not and did never exist, and how can we get rid of it? Thanks!
Best Regards, Stefan Falk
