Hi,

i have a OnPrem DPM Server which is connected with a Azure Recovery Service Vault.

From the DPM i backup some OnPrem Servers to the Azure Recovery Service Vault.

Currently i see some duplicated entrys and some entrys from old servers which no longer exists in the Azure Recovery Service Vault.

    @Reppner, Mike Thank you for contacting us on Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to help!

    As per the screen shot you shared it seems there is a sync issue on your DPM server due to which it is not updating the correct information on Azure Portal.

    Request you to follow below mentioned steps and see if it resolves the issue or not.

    1. Make sure there is no online backup job is running on DPM server.
    2. Go to Run -> Services.msc and Stop the service "Microsoft Azure Recovery Services Management Agent" and "Microsoft Azure Recovery Services Agent."
    3. Go to <Program Files>\Microsoft Azure Recovery Services Agent. You will see a checkpoint folder.
    4. Rename checkpoint folder to checkpoint_old.
    5. Start both the services (mentioned in step 2) again.
    6. Please wait for 30 min and let us know if portal gets the latest update from on-prem server.

    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, then request you to please check gatewayprovider.log file as there might be some errors which is causing the sync to fail. So please share it here so that we can further help you on it.

    Please don't forget to close up the thread here by upvoting and accept it as an answer if it is helpful.
