Data Protection Manager 2010 and System State Restore

I have DPM2010 running and am having issues with it eating all of my allocated space. I have purchased an external NAS unit and I want to copy all of the data from the DPM, including all recovery points, over to the NAS unit. I then want to delete the DPM jobs, drives, etc., and start over, of course having a back up on the NAS if all goes well. I have tried to use DPMBackup -db, which seems to create a file under the Shadow Copy\DatabaseBackups folder. When I run DPMbackup -replicas, it goes through all of my jobs and they all say SNAPSHOT SUCCESSFUL, yet when I go to the ShadowCopy folder, I dont see anything with the current date and time after it ran. If I run the same DPMBackup items and include TARGETLOCATION, and point it to my shared NAS drive, I get errors saying invalid location. I am walking into this DPM setup and I must say this is such a terrible solution. I would love any pointers or help to tell me A) How do I copy all of my current DPM Backed up data onto my external NAS drive, including all of the Recovery Points. B) How do I then delete my jobs to free up all of the ALLOCATED 5TB of space so that I can not be out of space.

iluvs2fish - That sounds like a browser hijack, unlikely to be anything to do with a system state restore through DPM...

Every time I try to put google.com in my browser window and hit enter, the page that comes up says my computer is infected and I need to run

System State Protection 2012 yada yada. I DO NOT have it installed on my laptop nor do I need it. It's FULLY protected with university software security suite. HOW can I keep this nonsense from coming up all the time????

If you can help thanks.
