During migration projects a lot of customers asks me how to import all accepted domains the easy way. The script I provide below is very basic but it will save you a lot of time.
But first create a CSV file with on the first line AcceptedDomains. Insert all your accepted domains on seperate lines starting from the second line.
$File = Read-Host "Please enter location and filename of the CSV file (example: D:TempAcceptedDomain.CSV)"
# Reading of all lines within the specified CSV file.
$list = Import-Csv $File
foreach($entry in $list) {
# Reading the AcceptedDomain variable from the CSV file.
$AcceptedDomain = $entry.AcceptedDomain
# Running the powershell command for creation of all Accepted Domains.
New-AcceptedDomain -Name $AcceptedDomain -DomainName $AcceptedDomain
}

System Center Data Protection (DPM) 2010, meantime, delivers unified data protection for Windows servers such as SQL Server, Exchange, SharePoint, Virtualization and file servers — as well as Windows desktops and laptops. Microsoft has re-engineered DPM 2010 to be more scalable so that both midsize and enterprise-class organizations can take advantage of it.
Key additions in DPM 2010 include:
- The ability for roaming laptops to get centrally managed policies around desktop protection, so that your laptop data is protected, whether you are connected to the corporate network or remote
- Enhanced virtualization protection, including Hyper-V R2 LiveMigration scenarios and the ability to recover single-files from within host-based backups
- Additional protection and recovery capabilities for Windows application servers like SQL Server, Exchange or SharePoint
- Native site-to-site replication for disaster recovery to either another DPM server or an off-site cloud provider
- Significant enterprise-scalability increases for deploying DPM in large environments
- Centrally managed System State and Bare Metal Recovery
We are very excited about two offerings because we think they address a critical need among midsize businesses: the struggle to find great IT management solutions that are tailored to provide that elusive combination of rich features and ease of use.
