Hi Kevin,
Thanks for your query. I do not think that a regen will be initiated for a DPF if the engine management light is on but am not 100% sure. A regen requires the DPF temperature to be elevated to a high temperature and so I think the ECU would only initiate this if everything else was ok with the car.
Like I said, I'm not 100% sure. Hope you get your car sorted. Let me know if you have any other queries. Please let me know how you get on.
