Can't add external DPM in MABS

Hello,

I'm trying to restore data from external DPM. I've got two on-premises DPMs. One works good and sends backups to Azure. Second is deployed for testing and I'm trying to add external DPM on it. Both are registered in Azure. Every time when I try to add primary DPM on secondary one I get error:

 

Adding External DPM : primarydpm.mydomain.local failed:
Error 33483: Either the recoverable data is not available or the selected server is not a DPM server.

 

Some articles says that you have to wait a day before adding external DPM. I waited but nothing changed.

Don't know what to do now.

    Hi Anatoly,

    Is it full blown data protection manager via system center licensing or MABS via the Azure portal?

    Thanks

      Hi Paul,

       

      It's MABS via the Azure portal. I thought that new version fixes the issue but it doesn't. I installed MABS v2 but still can't add external DPM.

        Hi Anatoly,

         

        Its my understanding that this isnt supported and is a feature thats only possible with DPM via the System Center Suite. 

         

        Can you explain a little more about the scenario that your trying to achieve i.e. the reasons / requirements for secondard backup server?

         

        Thanks
