Hi all,In the 2024E release I read something about migrating data from other backup vendors to Commvault. Unfortunately this can only be done for file ystem data (the the moment). Is there a plan to migrate other data (databases, VM's) too? That would be a complete solution when a customer wants to migrate from another vendor to CommvaultHopefully we have some information on this! Thanks in advance for the answerKind regards,Henk

Hello, please if you can help me I have this error when I take a full backup of a VM this Job advances 36% then I get this error. Maybe someone had experience with that error.“ Error code: [91:113] Description: Unable to read the disk [[PSLP40TBSSD03] clon bit01/clon bdnit01_3.vmdk] for virtual machine [S-NAL-BDNIT-01] on Host “

Hello Commvault Community, We have an environment that is based on several data centers in different locations around the world. Aux Copy performs correctly and on the fly, while I would like to ask if there is any way to speed up this process? The situation is as follows: In general, latency between sites is generally high, about 25-30ms, throughput is somewhere between 20-50gb/hr for AuxCopy jobs, sometimes faster. Is it not possible to split such AuxCopy into more minor sub-jobs? If more streams are used in parallel, latency will be less of a problem. We have already studied the topic of Scalable Resource Allocation, but here this Batch Size will not help us, because here isn’t a large number of jobs to be copied and we are concerned only with improving the performance of this process.  Thank you in advance for your help on this topic.Kind RegardsKamil

Hello, I want to use PowerBI to retrieve data from Commvault Cloud SaaS plateform but even after reading the documentation from API portal and tried to connect to the URL with a specific user I didn’t make it work.Does anyone already use a custom query into PowerBI to get access to Commvault platform through API ?I don’t need help about transforming the data but just to understand how to connect to the API it seems that there is no token, I need to use a username and password to my metallic.io URL but it’s unfortunately not clear. Thanks for your help. Benjamin

Hi all!could you advice me how to troubleshoot following types of error: Error Code: [13:138] Description: Error occurred while processing chunk [xxx] in media [xxx], at the time of error in library [disklib01] and mount path [[xxx] /srv/commvault/disklib01/xxx], for storage policy [XXX] copy [Xxx] MediaAgent [svma1]: Backup Job [xxx]. Unable to setup the copy pipeline. Please check connectivity between Source MA [svma1] and Destination MA [svma1].  At a glance, it seems that it is not possible for CV to process chunk from the (index?)/disk library...However, the issue is connected with storage policy copy, that moves data from the disk library to the tape library (secondary copy). The main problem for us is that it is not possible to copy data to the tapes. Therefore, it may say Unable to setup the copy pipeline. The media agent is one server/device, that communicates with both disk and tape library. Lastly, the files in the related directories dont seem to be corrupted...Any suggesti

Im trying to restore a Windows 2012 server that was backed up on an old vmware VCENTER. I am getting the error Error Code 23:10 Error while reading pipeline buffer from MediaAgent (commvault.com) - How can I “Change the network adapter of the virtual machine to vmxnet3” on a server that is backed up? During the restore, I change the vcenter to the new vcenter using the same datastore, ESX and Media Agent servers. It fails almost right away. Is there another way to get the backup?

So for the last couple weeks, we've been seeing an add error ("Mount Error") with our media agent and its fiber connected drives:  Media Label:  CV_MAGNETICFailure Reason:  "A file with the same name already exists.  Cannot create a new file"Information:  We have new equipment on order to replace this server.  But for the moment, we have an 8 gib fiber connection to carry everything in and out of this system (IP traffic, fiber connected drives (25+).  It's pretty clear to me that the pipe is full.  But, we've never seen this issue before.  Unfortuantely, it doesn’t have an error code, it appears to be a straight up “hey, something’s wrong with your datastore where you save I’ve got a ticket in regarding the error.  Anyone else have any clues about how we should look at this?  I”m not sure which log to start with as there isn’t an error code to start me off. 

Hello !There are many helpful links and docs about VSA Indexing v1 to v2 migration, requirements and post-migration tasks.. But as of now, I have not yet found the answer to my question regarding my environment.  We have a single VMWare VCenter, lets call it VCENTER.This single VCENTER server manages multiple locations, like USA, CANADA, INDIA, etc.., where each time we have a corresponding VMWare Datacenter, with ESXes, VMs we need to backup, and MAs. In our Commvault environment so far, for internal reasons, I have created a VMWare Pseudo client for each location, like :VCENTER-USAVCENTER-CANADAVCENTER-INDIA Each point to the same VCENTER, but the VSA configuration for proxies, SPs and target VMs to backup are different as they’re pointing to the servers for each location.They were all created using indexing v1.So far I can only migrate using the indexing v1 to v2 workflow.My question is, is it possible to update only 1 of those pseudo client, like VCENTER-INDIA, AND to not affect th

Hello Community,I’m currently in the process of migrating archive backups to Azure using Azure Data Box. I have a specific question regarding the overall size of data after migration. Could someone provide insights into whether there might be any changes to the data size during this process? If so, what kind of differences should I take into account? The Azure Data Box is attached as copy to storage policies with deduplication active.Migration is from Azure DATA Box -> Azure Storage Account Thank you in advance for your assistance!
