Description of the hotfix rollup package for System Center Data Protection Manager 2007: October 23, 2009
Issue 1
The DPM 2007 error logs are flushed only when the DPM service starts or stops. If the DPM service crashes, the DPM error logs are not flushed. This behavior causes some errors to be missing from the error logs.
Note After you apply this hotfix rollup, the DPM error logs are flushed every five minutes. The error logs are also flushed when the DPM service stops or crashes.
