Azure Application API Permissions for M365 Services

Hi CommVault Community,I deployed the Azure Applications for M365 Services with the Express Setup.The Azure Applications have some permissions that are somewhat concerning from a security perspective.Therefore the question, are the following permissions really necessary?Why do the Azure Apps need "Application.ReadWrite.All" permissions?Why does the Azure Application for SharePoint Online need "RoleManagement.ReadWrite.Directory" permissions?They are not listed in the official documentation!https://documentation.commvault.com/2023/essential/142507_request_and_grant_permissions_to_azure_apis_for_azure_app_for_sharepoint_online.htmlCVSPBackupAppCVTeamsBackupAppCVODBackupAppCVExBackupApp best regards,Andreas

Security measures for the Commvault environment.

Hello Community, Commvault offers several ways to secure the environment. Be it Ransomeware protection, account lock after x attempts, unusual file activities. Is there an overview of what else is possible here? We need to raise our security standards and would have to evaluate all the possibilities that Commvault offers. Maybe someone of you has already discovered all the features or even uses them and can give useful tips here. Kind RegardsThomas

How to run a report of all files backed up in a folder

I have a request to run a report for all files backed up on a specific date within a specific folder. I am either looking for a report that will show this to me or a way to have all backed up files copied to a spreadsheet. I have tried running a file search report a Chargeback report and backup job summary report. None of these attempts are giving me the listing that I am looking for. Does anyone have any suggestions on what report to run or how to get the list of all of the files in a CSV?

Issue with RESTORE-CVSQLDATABASE -OutofPlace

I’m trying to script a process to automate my restore testing of SQL Server database backups from Commvault. The process will one-by-one restore each production database from all of my production servers to a utility server where I can run checkdb and other validation processes against the database and log the results. I’m doing this all through powershell and using the Commvault powershell module RESTORE-CVSQLDATABASE to do the restore with the -OutofPlace flag and the other needed paramaters to tell it where to restore. So far it works fine as long as the original database data file directory and log file directories match my utility server. Not so fine when they don’t. It will throw an error in Commvault saying that it cannot find the datafile directory (H:\MSSQL\Data…..etc). Of course there is no H drive on my utility server but that should be taken care of with the -DataFilePath "E:\MSSQL\Data" -LogFilePath "F:\MSSQL\Log" parameters I’ve passed in right? Here’s the actual sy

Icon doesn't change when activity is disabled on virtual machine client

We are on 11.28.44 and I noticed when we disable backup activity at the client level of a virtual machine client (which has no agents installed), there is no visual indication that activity is disabled.Is this expected?Most other clients will show red arrows to indicate that activity is disabled - but VMs don’t seem to show this.I see that I can create a smart client computer group which could group and show all of the backup activity disabled clients, but it would be nice to visually get the red arrow indication when activity is disabled without having to go to properties of the client to check.

index status of app

We had an exchange online app running backups. the backup jobs looked fine. however the index status had fallen behind several weeks so when i went to a restore, i could not restore anything for the past four weeks. I had to create a ticket, they had to get somone on the backend to startup our index job. to catch up it took several days, during which i could not run a recent restore. is there a way to get a notification if an index starts to fall behind?

DIPs and the UNIX pseudo cluster client ..

Hi... I'll try to be short... Here's the setup:- Two AIX clients in a DMZ zone.- CS connects to the clients front end NIC.- In between clients and MAs, a Backup Network is defined along with a OneWay FW. (set on the client group level) - Backups of each of the clients work as expected. CS can happily communicate with the clients on their front- end NIC and backup streams are running over the backup network as expected.- Clients are added to a UNIX pseudo cluster client. - The UNIX pseudo cluster is a VIP address (along with a FQDN name) which is owned by the active node. Issue:Backups configured for the UNIX pseudo cluster client fail as the DIP configuration for the active node doesn't seem to be taken into consideration.. Is there any way around this behavior? We need the backup data streams to originate from the DIP address on what ever node is active. CVLT v11.20.60 Any ideas? Already got ticket 210930-186 open, but unfortunately not much progress here.. Thank you for any idea you
