Restore SQL DB to EC2 Instance - Isolated VPC

Good afternoon folks,We currently have our CV environment installed on-premise and we are looking to test our backups by restoring our VMs (VMWare) into an isolated VPC in AWS which is working great.Whilst attempting to restore SQL to this isolated environment I have noticed it only gives me the option to restore to one of our existing SQL servers, I assume it is looking for those clients that have the CV agent installed.I am wondering what my options are for restoring to this isolated AWS VPC - or if this is not possible at all.

HyperV backup did not delete/merge checkpoint disk after completion.

Hi,My customer having issue with hyperv backup. There is a lot of vm with left snapshot/checkpoint after backup completed. Hence there is a lot of avhdx disk cause the storage full.Microsoft said that backup should be doing the merge/delete after backup completed. From my understanding it should be hyperv do the merge/delete since it is hyperv checkpoint, Commvault only give instruction for hyperv to delete/merge it.Anyway that we can do backup without checkpoint?

jQuery Vulnerability Found on the WebConsole

Hi all, A customer has recently brought this to our attention that within their environment there is an outdated version of the jQuery being utilised via their WebConsole. They are currently running 11.20.85 and the version of jQuery they are still using is 2.1.3 which has known vulnerabilities. I am aware of there being another topic open for a similar, if not same, issue.https://community.commvault.com/topic/show?tid=988&fid=2However, this does not look to have a promising resolve, is there a resolve to mitigate these vulnerabilities or force the webconsole to utilise a more updated version of the jQuery? Kind regards, Jonathan

SmtpMailCache inbox growing

So we are using smtp journaling and the location we are journaling to continues to grow in space. I am not sure why. I have run full back up jobs on the content store mailbox, i have ran cleanup against it as well. When clean up runs it only clears out the recent emails that came. However the path smtpmailcache\mailboxes\inbox have about 140GB of mail items. Am i able to remove all those messages? My retention on that mailbox is 1 day however i have 153 folders and growing in that inbox location. Any advice would be apricated.

Tape library - 3 week sets

Afternoon allI have a few questions - hopefully nothing too complicated!I have recently configured a tape library in our Commvault environment which appears to be working OK - I just had a few questions around configuring the tape library to suite our needs.The plan is to backup to tapes so they can be take offsite daily and used in a DR scenario. We would like to keep 3 weeks worth of data on the tapes and would like to have a tape for each day.I’ve configured the auxiliary copy job and the related schedules to backup at a suitable time which I think so far is fine however where I appear to be struggling is with configuring Commvault to backup to a new tape each day.We will have 21 tapes and as an example tape 001 will be week 1 Monday, tape 002 will be week 1 Tuesday etc - tape 007, 008 and 009 will be Friday, Saturday and Sunday respectively.There will be x2 SP’s that will be backing up to tape - my question is, is it possible to configure CV so that one the backup job from SP2 is c

Reports for Schedule Policies

I am trying to find out if there is a report that I can run for each of my Schedule Policies. Currently when checking backups from the night before I go into Schedule Policy, go to each of our policies and view jobs. I can then verify if it went to tape or even look deeper to see what files were backed up. Is there a report that I could run each night so in the morning I just have reports for each one that I can easily view pretty much the same info of all the Subclients under each policy and the stats for the previous nights backup? I realize I may have to dig into creating my own reports, which I am still figuring out. Thank you for any help in pointing me in the right direction.

DDB V5 Conversion - how was it for you?

Hi Team, We are about to embark on the V4 to V5 DDB conversion process, but I thought I would ask here and see how it went for those that have completed this. We have a few partitioned DDB’s with a reasonable amount of size, and I am trying to gauge how long our backup-outage might be, as we have to guesstimate on behalf of our customer. I can see that the pre-upgrade report does give estimates, so I’m wondering how ball-park they might be. One more thing … is there a way if identifying what version of DDB we have> Thanks
