Hi Vaulters, Hope everyone is doing good. In our backup infra, we have a dedicated backup NAS storage array, in which deduplication will be enabled (Commvault Deduplication will not be used). Since it is a NAS, we intended to use it as our export location for our CommServe DR backup and also as our main Disk Library/Mount Path for the CommServeDR storage policy. We read somewhere in the documentation that deduplication for CommServeDR is not recommended and should not be enabled in CommVault. Does that also imply storage Deduplication ? If so, does this impact for the DUMP export or Storage Policy copy or both ? We’d love to get more details regarding this. As our NAS is only configured with one single shared FileSystem with Dedup enabled. Kinf regards.

Hello,I created a selective copy that shoud copy yearly Fulls to tape. it is scheduled to be executed on January 2025 to copy the last fulls of December 2024 But something is not clear for me. Based on the configuration and what I understand,all the last full backups that will be performed on December 2024 should be copied to tape at launch via the schedule policy. (expected on January 2025) Here is the detailed configuration Storage Policy Copies : Storage Policy Copy Properties [General]  Storage Policy Copy Properties of [Selective Copy] Schedule policy   Why on this copy, I see that is on the Media Not CopiedWhen I click on Media Not copied, I see that some media needs to be copied from the Primary even if we are not at the end of the year 2024 and the schedule doesn’t happen yet (schedule is planned for January 2025 to copy last full of December 2024) Media Not copied list Detail of V_30450 Detail of V_30450I see that some jobs are waiting for copy but that jobs have been run on 2

Hello, just wondering in order to “increase” security to SQL DB of CommServe, following CIS Level 1 hardening, is it a good idea to remove sysadmin permissions from local / windows user from SSMS?After this action, is there any way to connect to COMMVAULT SQL instance?Where we can find the credentials for these sql local users?Please for your feedback!

Hi,I’d like to enable parallel backup config for PostgreSQL databases. I can see I can modify the parallel dump based back up set config to enable parallel backups, but wondering if the default dump based backup set config can have this feature enabled by default?I don’t find any related article about it.For reference, this is the attribute I’d like to get enabled by default:https://documentation.commvault.com/2024/essential/using_parallel_jobs_to_dump_postgresql_database.html Thanks,

Hi, Our MySQL DB admin has removed some transactions logs from DB side. No we recieve following error in incremental backup. our full backup is a snap backup.

Hey,quick question:I am currently unable to delete a media location.My question, is it possible to delete the tape locations via a Qscript?

Hi Team, The Library of Storage Policy Copy, which I marked in the red frame in the screenshot below, will be closed. For this reason, we need to move the data to the "Private Cloud Library" that we have just created."Private Cloud Library" is not listed as Storage Pool when creating new Storage Policy Copy. There are already 2 Storage Policy Copy attached from "Private Cloud Library".The question is: How can I add a Storage Policy Copy with different retention addressing the same Library? Is there a limitation?If I can't get past this, is there any suggestion on how I can move the data?

Hello,Our customer is currently backing up a large CIFS share using another backup solution once a month. The solution has been configured to do the incremental forever with 7 years retention. The backup lands on diskpool and migrate to tape as last resting location. After the backup completion tapes send to vault. How can we mimic same method with Commvault with a tape library.  There is no disk to tape migration neither incremental forever without doing any synthetics full with Commvault.I thought best approach might be listed what do you think?Define a NAS client  with CIFS credentialsRun a manual full backup to Tape library using maximum amount of drives with multiple streaming.Define a monthly schedule as to directly tape library as target Set basic retention 2555 days 1 cycle.Maybe once a year run a synthetic full just for precaution (!)This still lack of disk to tape migration but at least similar to current solution.

I have on prem vmware which need to be replicated to azure and we have regular backup set for all the vm’s.I have a media agent and storage in azure confgurued. I added azure in commserv using managed identity.i created replication group and selected periodic replication and in the target i selected the added azure vm hypervisor. It asked me to select a access node so i chose the media agent in azure for that.Now the replication is failing bcoz i can see its trying to backup using the of media agent in azure and it doesnt have access to on prem vm.i selected access node as auto still same, why the target access node being used to backup production vm. what i need is the backup of on prem vm should use on prem access node to backup and whatever operation in the azure side should use azure vm access nodeis this possible?do i need use orchestrated replication in this case ?  

Hello, I am trying to NAS backup with NDMP agent but when i am running incr backup its taking to long or de backup faile. The volume have more then 14M small files.  What is best practice to backup it? Intellisnap maybe? 

Hello. I’ve been doing a lot of reading, I’ve seen the threads on here and I’ve read the architecture guide but I am still a little puzzled as to what I actually need to configure.I would like to apply WORM in the Commcell and object-lock in S3IA.I believe objects will be aged from the bucket when the DDB seals periodically.  This happens at the same period as the policy copy retentionI still don’t quite understand why bucket object retention has to be set to twice the policy copy retention.I also can’t work out if I need to add a lifecycle config rule and set the  non current version expiration to 2 days.  I know this needs to be done for none object-locked buckets that don’t have versioning enabled, but an object-locked bucket does.  Does anyone else use worm and ol, what are your configs?  Do you see issues where the size that Commvault reports is not the same as the actual bucket size due to objects not expiring? Thanks,

Hello all!We are in the middle of Proof of concept Postgre backup implementation process.No one of our backup team does have any experience regarding this backup type. So far we do have implemented backup that I am able to see those two Backups sets:I am trying to understand the difference between those two subclients. They were configured automatically. I have found this in documentation:So in case that we would like to do Full Backup of All DBs i should use Dump Based Backup?But when creating backup for this subclient (Dump Based Backup)backup size is about 250mb… DB team checked server configuration and it said that DB is more then 3GB: Why there is such a difference in sizes? It was very first backup so i can not blame deduplication or so…  While trying to use other sublient FSBasedBackupSet I am having a error with log directory.This DB is not set to use any archive mode, so its in some kind of “simple recovery mode” and its not generating logs file.  So my questions are: Why ther

I am working on a code to fetch all jobs for a spesific client group and count each job status so that I can preprare a report to display all jobs status for the last 24 hours. But “lookup_time” is not working as expected, less job fetched. Even changed the time for the lookup_time with different hours but the output is alwasy the same. I think lookup_time is not working as it should. Do you have any idea why it is not working ?   jobs_last24hours = job.finished_jobs(client, lookup_time=24)
