Hi all. I’m curious to know what speed others see when doing a Vmware NBD restore.Hardware, configuration ect. is not important, just want to know the speed, as I do not know if my restore speed is fast or slow.I get around 450Gb/h when restoring a single server via NBD. What do you get? Thanks-Anders

Hi All, Refer https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/essential/planning_for_commserve_livesync_setup.html Identical software must be used for setting up the production and the standby CommServe hosts. Ensure that the Operating System and SQL Server version (including feature releases) are identical in the both the production and standby hosts. Could install and setup HA Active / Standby in one Windows 2022 Standard and one Windows 2022 Data Center? Best regards 

Are there any issues with creating a Secondary Copy for a Plan via the CommCell Console, with the intent of promoting that copy to Primary?For whatever reason, the Plan isn’t correctly listed within Command Center, and as such I am concerned about causing further issues if attempting the change via Command Center. Plans are terrible.

Dear Team, We currently have a production CommServer running V11 SP 28, while laptop/desktop backups are operating on a lower version, V11 SP 24. With over 5000 laptop/desktop agents requiring an upgrade, we seek assistance in downloading the necessary packages and deploying them via SCCM without creating new instances. Your guidance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.Furthermore, we have observed multiple duplicate instances appearing for each machine. We are keen to remove or delete these duplicates without impacting the existing backup configurations. Could you please provide instructions on how to achieve this effectively? Regards,ManiD

The evening of Friday April 6, I upgraded my CommVault installation from 11.32.38 to 11.34.20. Following the upgrade (which required reboots of almost all the client computers), the Friday evening backups seems to be running normally.  When I returned to work on Monday morning I have roughly 300 Alert emails regarding “unusual job activity” on various servers.  Weirdly, some of the alerts say zero files have been changed:Anomaly NotificationAn unusual job activity was detected in Job [751258], type [Root Size Change]. Details: Unusual number of file operations in client [INF-SQLP104] - created files: [0], deleted files: [0], modified files: [0], root size change of [0.00] GBDoes anyone know what the problem is and how to stop all this spam? Is there a way to turn off these notifications?ThanksKen

Hello everyone,I am currently facing a problem:Backup for a large CIFS volume (> 50 TB! on NetApp) should run as follows:1. backup as incremental via SnapShot on productive filer several times a day2. transfer the SnapShots via snapvault to a backup NetApp via snapvault (aux copy)so far no problem ... then:3. backup of the last incremental SnapShot of the week from the backup Netapp to S3 (with DDB) and then synthetic full to get a new full again.-> This is possible in principle as the backup is incremental but a snapshot always contains everything. This means that only the diff of this last snapshot to the last synthetic full has to be backed up and this is only approx. 2 - 3 TB per week.4. once a quarter backup of the last (synthetic) full from S3 to tape (regulation) … no problem as well Unfortunately, Backup Copy ignores all incremental backups wif I use selection rules (even with “Apply selection rule for snap jobs” selected). I can either specify "all backups" here, but the

How I configure Vmware VSA backup via NBD over backup network? normaly I need NIC pairing between client and MediaAgent to be sure the backup trafic is travelling over backup network, but in this case the ESXi server is delivering the data, how I can do here NIC pairing, as Commvault has only the vCenter server configured?Currently we use proxy server VMs with hot-add, but we want to reduce the VM foot print.We use Vmware and Windows MAs.Commvault version is v11.32.42regards Juergen

Hi All,I have a VM that is >2TB and we have observed both flakiness and slow performance completing backups, and in particular, restores.I have in the back of my mind the notion that CV recommends very big VMs be covered with FS agent (or intellisnap) rather than VSA but cannot find the relevant reference.The VSA best practice ref. does not cover this situation.  Can anyone help refresh my memory?Thanks
