I ran across this very useful set of Powershell scripts for DPM 07 on Technet. These scripts can help you do things you can’t do via the GUI. Here is the link: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/scripts/dpm/default.mspx?mfr=true and more will be added later but here are the scripts they have currently up there:

•	Automatically Add New SQL Databases for Protection

•	Copy Latest Point In Time Of SQL DB To A Folder

•	Create New Recovery Point for All Data Sources in a Protection Group

•	Create Protection Groups for Disk-Based Backups

•	Force Mark Tape As Free

•	Increase Replica and Recovery Point Volume Sizes

•	Manual Detailed Inventory Of Unknown Tapes

•	Recover To Latest Point In Time For A SQL DB

•	Run Consistency Check
