Hi All, we have switched the Mail Server  and added the new adress inside of the control panal. The normal Reports and test amils are working fine but we had an issue with the workflows. For Example the dbmaintanance: 3400 786 05/27 09:25:07 8815232 WorkflowMail: [send mail (Email_sendMail)] failed to send message, host [xyz], port [587]org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException: Sending the email to the following server failed : xyz:587Caused by: com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPSendFailedException: 451 5.7.3 STARTTLS is required to send mail [xyz]So in the control panal we can set the use starttls but inside of the workflow not and it looks like the workflow engine dont use the global settings. Do you have an idear ?

Dear ones, The client requests a survey of VM growth from January to date to find out how many are being protected month by month, do we have some kind of report that provides this information on the growth of Virtual Machines?

HiI have full backup daily.Basic retention is set to 7 day 1 cycle. I need to extend retention only for first Saturday of each month to 90 day.How to specific the first Saturday? 

Dear Team,I have three node Hyperscale cluster. Comcell server is outside hyperscale running inside a Windows VM. version 11.24 At present we are backing up 50 vmware VM clients and few SQL clients. We are procuring a large capacity Hyperscale to add another new 600 Virtual machines to get backed up. I want to move the exisiting SQL clients and 50 vms to new hyperscale. What is the best approach , setup a new comcell and configure everything like storage policies Dedupe and new VSA servers or add the new Hyperscale machines as new setup of media agents and configure backups? Please advise 

From the CS GUI, the JOB Controller Operations has ‘VM Admin (Backup).We are using 11.28.44 FR and this is newly created subclient from  VM backup.Is there a fix for this?  Appreciate it.  

HelloMy organisation currently has a process of deactivating exiting staff members by removing 365 licenses.I therefore have two dynamic groups one active (which captures licensed users) and another disabled.  These two dynamic groups form the content for OneDrive for Business backups in Commvault. Office 365 app: OneDrive_activeusers                                    Content: backup_ActiveUsersOffice 365 app: OneDrive_disabledusers                                Content: backup_disabledusers When a user moves from one group to another Commvault seems to do a new full backup.  If this is the case, are we doubling up on the backups unnecessarily?Thank you.

I can not add vmware (vcenter) hypervisor to Commvault. I did upgrade Commvault from 11.32.35 to 11.32.54 (Maintenance Release) and I notice this problem as you can see on the attached picture. I saw that before upgrade (v 11.32.35) I had the same problem.   

Hi as document reference » https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/backing_up_sql_databases_on_azure_cloud.html I still not clear that, Can commvault backup azure sql to on-premise storage ?Thank you for you help. 

Can anyone explain the benefits of Plans over the traditional Storage Policy and Schedule Policy model? I must be missing something that makes up for the loss of granular control.

Dear team ,  is there anyway we can backup ocr file and vote disk ASM parameter file .ASM password file using commvault

Hello,Since we are on SP 11.38.28 i am getting this error at AUX > Metalic. Anyone know what does its mean?   Error - Description: [Media write operation failure] [Dedupe cloud media] [Failed to validate the cloud server certificate authenticity, either the cloud server presented an invalid certificate or a self-signed certificate.

Hi All,We have a HSX Storage Pool that completes backups for an OnPrem VMWare Environment. In this scenario, our HSX Environment completes backups through SAN and HotAdd Proxies.When running a Subclient backup, VMs will use their perspective proxies, though 1 HSX node is always the Media Agent for all child VMs jobs.Does the above imply that data written to the Hedvig Library is only using that HSX Node’s physical disks for the first point write? I may be fundamentally misunderstanding the storage technology, though my assumption is that each node would write to its local disk with the hblock process handling it from there. In this scenario, are we therefore only using a % of the total spindles for direct writes, or is that simply not how Hedvig works that this is not a concern?In the same line-of-thinking, would this also apply to the Network data flow and is all traffic is being routed through the 1 node, and therefore limiting the maximum throughput for a single subclient.If the abo

I’m trying to recover a Linux 1-touch backup via Interactive mode of the lastest 11.34 media kit for Linux into dissimilar hardware (different disk config). After disk validation of the WebAdmin interface I get an error “Fail to format/partition disks”.On partinfo.log I see this:fdisk shows: My WebAdmin reconfig:I’m running Commcell 11.34.26, and before when I was on .22 I was able to do this same restore succesfully Any ideas?

Would you tell me what Commvault report options to select to show what drives are being backed up on each FSA client and VSA VMDK filters.

User has a Microsoft file cluster with two nodes. VMs in a vmware environment.It was not possible to back up the VMs through standard Commvault VM backup due to “shared virtual drives”.I thought, well there is a file cluster feature in Commvault, we can use that.User says: Oh what about if we need to restore a node, then we would have to reconfigure everything?I say, don’t worry, because we have 1-touch recovery.As I said that, I wondered - do we really have 1-touch for file cluster? I went to another similar file cluster job and tried the 1-touch, and it says there are no system state backups.. so no 1-touch.This means I need to run the Commvault regular file backup on both nodes, as this allows me to backup system state and run 1-touch if needed. Correct?

Hi All, Refer auto failover as below The monitoring nodes and the failover CommServe host(s) periodically check the active CommServe host, and automatically fails over to the standby CommServe host when the active CommServe host is not reachable. The failover occurs only when both the following conditions are satisfied: The monitoring nodes and the failover CommServe host(s) are not able to communicate with the CommServe (Instance001) in the active CommServe host. The monitoring nodes and the failover CommServe host(s) are able to reach the other clients in the network.  Compare normal cluster failover concept, it may require third site (witness) decide and trigger failover. But manual did not mention require monitoring nodes in third site. If setting as below, which (nodes / hosts) and how to decide and trigger auto failover when WAN link failure and master commserve still alive?siteA  WAN link connect to siteB siteA have physical master commserve with MediaAgent role backup

I understand that Commvault supports Azure SQL Managed Instance. However, I am unable to locate the documentation that specifies whether Azure Arc-enabled SQL Managed Instance on Azure Stack HCI is supported or not. Could you please provide the link to this documentation if it is available?Additionally, could you clarify the following:Does Commvault support Azure Arc-enabled SQL Managed Instance? If not currently supported, will it be supported in an upcoming release? 

Hi All,I have few doubts on File System RecoveryIt is stated in the documentation that, we need to collect necessary information like System Information before disaster recovery.If we have backups in place, Is it mandatory to collect such information to recover the Full System using File System backups?Because we are not sure when the disaster occurs.For example, if my system is having Windows 19 OS and it was crashed suddenly, and I don’t have information about patches installed, but I have Full File System backups inplace with System State.Can I restore the Full Server by building a new Server with same OS with latest patches? Documentation referred:Rebuilding the Windows Operating System (commvault.com) Regards,Sravan Kondeti

I have some questions regarding the Commvault Certified Professional Exam:1: After making payment, how many days do I have to take the test?2: Can you consult the laboratory and tool documents during the test?3: Is it mandatory to carry out any training on the platform to take the exam?
