KB: The DPM service crashes with Event ID 917 after you change a protection group

After you change a protection group in Microsoft System Center 2012 Data Protection Manager (DPM 2012), the DPM service crashes with Event ID 917 and the console shuts down. This affects only protection groups that are configured for long-term protection (for example, groups that are configured for tape backup), especially if those groups contain data sources that are SQL AlwaysOn databases.

For more details and a work around, please see the following:
