Resolution

This is a known bug in DPM 2010 and a fix is in progress, however, in the meantime you can use the following power shell script to add the client to the secondary DPM servers protection group.

***************** Start Script here ***************
# Change variables as per need
$PGName = "Protection Group 1"
$primaryDPMName = "PrimaryDPM.corp.contoso.com"
$clientName = "laptop123.corp.contoso.com"

$dpmservername = &"hostname"
$dpmservername = $dpmservername.Substring(0, [Math]::Min(15, $dpmservername.Length))

# Get the modifiable PG object
$pg = Get-ProtectionGroup -DPMServerName $dpmservername | where { $_.FriendlyName -eq $PGName }
$mpg = Get-ModifiableProtectionGroup -ProtectionGroup $pg

# Run datasource inquiry on Primary DPM
$ps = Get-ProductionServer -DPMServerName $dpmservername | where {$_.Name -eq $primaryDPMName }
$clientToAdd = Get-Datasource -ProductionServer $ps -Inquire | where { ($_.Type.Id -eq "7b2e4c3d-876f-4535-b5c9-b344d4f05120") -and ($_.LogicalPath -like ($clientName + "\*")) }

if ($clientToAdd)
{
    # Add client to PG
    Add-ChildDatasource -ProtectionGroup $mpg -ChildDatasource $clientToAdd

    # Set disk allocation
    Set-DatasourceDiskAllocation -ProtectionGroup $mpg -ExpectedDataSizePerClientInMB ($mpg.ClientPGDetailsField.ExpectedDataSizePerClient/(1024*1024))

    # Set the IR method for newly added client. (Uncomment to start immediate IR)
    #Set-ReplicaCreationMethod -ProtectionGroup $mpg -Now

    # Commit the changes
    Set-ProtectionGroup -ProtectionGroup $mpg
}

***************  End script here *****
