Hello community  we have extended retention for Yearly backup keep for infiniteIf we change yearly extended retention to a monthly extended retention for infinite (no longer have extended retention for yearly), what happens to the yearly backups? Do the old yearly backups already on the backup storage/media start to get aging off ? thanks

Hi allI have a question about the running of parallel aux copy tasks - why two parallel tasks do not execute one after the other. After reaching approximately 80%, the job stops, then enters the "Waiting" state and the second aux copy job is started.Details:Commvault version 11.32Tasks start at the same time (same Schedule Policy)The same Global Secondary Copy PolicyUse Scalable Resource Allocation - Yes (in 11.28 it could be turned off and the tasks ran sequentially) The copy is transferred to the tape library The library has two drives but only one is used (GSC settings - device streams: 1 - this is a consciously set parameter) Priority 266 Is it possible to make some setting so that the first task ends and then starts the second one? Thank you all in advance for any tips.   

Hey, i would like to restore a VMDK file directly to a datastore from a Hypervisor (VMWare) without attaching it to a VM. Am I just unable to find the function, or can Commvault really only restore single VMDK files on a MediaAgent or directly on a datastore with the requirement to attach them to a VM?Shouldn’t be this a easy implementation as the process already exist (Restore Disk to VM). Just removing the attache step. 

Hi All, If backup job or aux job Status display Waiting due to library offline. will waiting job expire and kill by auto if waiting a long period? If yes, which setting control? if the library online again after a few days, will waiting job continue start backup? Best regards  

I have uninstalled all client agents from a host, the upgrade status shows as not applicable.The client now only has VM agent backups occurring. While all other VM backup clients show v 11.00, these clients still retain the agent version. Is there any way to resolve this as it is ruining day.   

Hello folks,We are wondering if MongoDB version 7 is supported in Commvault 11.32.We have seen in the documentation updated as of 04/27/24 that the most recent compatible version is 6.xhttps://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/essential/system_requirements_for_mongodb.htmlRegards.

HiBeen plagued with this problem for a while. Support has not been able to crack it yet either. I have 4 Media Agents and 2 are using CBT and crash consistent backup options for the Intellisnap and work fine. The other 2 Media agents are also using CBT but using Application Consistent (quiesced backup) backup options for Intellisnap and these Media Agents will sometimes freeze up the Virtual Disk Service and the backupcopy fails for the remainder of the backup copies. I cannot open the process manager on the MA’s when this happens and end up have to reboot the MA to get things back on track. Not a lot of info but chucking this one out there to see if anyone had a similar experience. 

Hello, Community. There is a cluster of three nodes. 1 primary and 2 secondary.When I make a backup from one of the nodes, I get the following error:Error Code: [14:109]Description: Index processing failed on MediaAgent. This may be due to the index cache being full or because of a corrupt index.Source: 5, Process: MongoDBCtrlWhen I make a backup from another node, I get the following error:Error Code: [7:276]Description: Failed to start [backup] on node [3]Source: 4, Process: MongoDB how to deal with these errors?

Have 5 media agents in our environment that need to be renamed which would include a different FQDN for the DNS and also new ip address.  What is the best practice since some of these media agents also have DDB’s on SSD drives. Thanks

Hello,is it possible to use a fixed TCP port for the Appmanager, Jobmanager and Mediamanager? We have some trouble with an application on a server. Thank you and regards,Thomas 

Where a customer has a requirement to restore data from a Secondary Copy, rather than restoring all of the data directly from that Secondary Copy, it would be useful if there were an option to use something akin to the DASH Copy process to transmit only the blocks that are not available via the Primary Copy.I could see this being really beneficial for restoring back to remote office locations, and for reducing egress costs when recovering from cloud (especially from Archive tier).Alternatively, something like a Copy Back option could work, where jobs can be copied back to the Primary Copy, leveraging DASH Copy.

Dear Community,  anyone has experience with DB2 point in time restore of more than 1.5 TB Database if yes can you share me how long it takes … in my case almost 9 hours taken for restore. data restore taking 4 to 5 hours and roll forward taken 4 to 5 hours.   

Why do the values of Front End Backup Size and Full Synthetic backups in the Chargeback + License Summary reports show a significant discrepancy? The total of the reports falls considerably below the actual value of the synthetic backups. I'm seeking to understand the reasons behind this disparity and find solutions to align the values in the reports with the actual synthetic backups

Hi Community,We are securing our infra machines, so we want to setup up “File Activity anomaly alert” for our MAs in linux in real time.From this link i could see the unusual activity in real time is only for Windows.Is there any other alert we can configure for monitoring the unusual file activity in real time on Linux machines?Ps: we have already enabled the ransomware protection on our MAs.Thanks you in advance.

Current version(s):Server Name: snappro01    - SQL Server 2012 on dca-h-snappro01.int.dca.ca.gov    - CommVault 2022E 11.28    Needed version(s):- Server Name: snappro02    - SQL Server 2019 on dca-h-snappro01.int.dca.ca.gov    - CommVault 2023E 11.32 Please see the attachment for the upgrade instructions that I am closely following. Based on these instructions, you would normally be installing the new platform (2023E) to the same server that once hosted the old software (2022E). Moreover, by submitting the DR backup file, all of the old setting and metadata would transfer over. However, our current virtual server that hosts 2022E does not have the necessary system requirements to host 2023E. Therefore, our goal is to create a new virtual server, install all necessary commserve software, and have this be associated as our new snappro server

Hi All,- Commserve with MA connect via hypervisor VSA VM backup VM1- subclient content with VM1 and crash consistent backup, software compression select on client and deduplication generate signature select on clientrefer above setting, may we know as below- if VM1 without commvault agent, which one would compression? client or VSA?- if VM1 with commvault agent , which one would compression? client or VSA?- if VM1 without commvault agent, which one would generate deduplication signature? client or VSA?- if VM1 with commvault agent, which one would generate deduplication signature? client or VSA?- we assume VSA execute all, is correct? may we know more detail if client execute and without commvault agent? Best regards
