I’ve just recently install SDW on 2 of my DFM server (to benefit from the snapshot based backups). When running a ‘dfm backup diag’ to verify ‘allowed backup types’, I see that I’m still left with only ‘Archive(ndb)’ and I’m getting an unexpected error, ‘proc_pipe CreateProcess failed: The system cannot find the file specified (2)’.
The 1st DFM server had no issues, output from ‘dfm backup diag’ was as I expected and I immediately was able to start snapshot based backups. However; running through the same process on my 2nd DFM server, I encountered a bit of an issue…
C:\>dfm backup diag
proc_pipe CreateProcess failed: The system cannot find the file specified (2)

I looked though the logs files but didn’t see anything pertaining to this….Anyone have any thoughts as to what file is missing?
Thanks!
