Hi can commvault backup azure cosmoadb mangodb api or will be the roadmap for next release.
Hello all!I am wondering if there is a way to check “storage” on servers, which are a part of backup in Commvault.Reason: In our company - we as a backup team does not have direct access to hosts, and sometimes it took ages to find someone responsible for server to do some checks…Quesion:If there is File System agent installed on server - is there a way to check things like “total size, consumed space, free space”? On both Linux and Windows machines?It would help us a lot, especially while restoring out of place DBs.I am asking because i have found that Oracle agent is doing some checks while preparing restore:I have like thousands of ideas how it could improve our quality of work...Any ideas?Thanks!

The point is that the source and destination servers are in different network segments and do not communicate with each other - but both communicate with MediaAgent.
