Hi Support Team, We are running backups daily, weekly and monthly to disk library. Now we are going to take secondary copy in to tape with three tape drives. So, The requirement is Weekly Full Backup for Database Servers and Monthly Backup for File server and application servers. Weekly backups need to take tape like First Week backup for week-1 Tape, Second Week backup for week-2 tape, Third week backup for week-3 tape, Fourth week backup for week-4 tape and Fifth week backup for week-5 Tape.Monthly backups need to take dedicated Monthly tape. Also Two tape drive for dedicated to backup and another one for restore purpose. Could you please help us how to achieve and its possible. Thanks Regards,ManiD

Hi! We’re slowly planning some upgrades to our Commvault installasjon, where we’re planning to go from 11.24 to 11.32 (which i understand can be done with a direct upgrade from .24 to .32)….. but we also plan to upgrade the Commvault MSSQL installasjon, which is currently an older MSSQL versjon, The question is, should we upgrade the DB first, or Commvault ? Any recommendation ?
Hi Guys, We got a new SAN Storage, which is fully dedicated for backup. Since it's an FC Storage, we’ll present the LUNs to MediaAgents agents through SAN Switches. Our concern is about High Availability for MediaAgents regarding SAN. Is it possible to implement Gridstor through SAN ? We’ve already done that in the past with Object storage through mount path sharing. We now are wondering if this is feasible also through FC. Since SAN configuration implies Zoning configuration through SAN switches and LUNs are mounted locally into each MediaAgent. Overall, that's our need, being able to back up and restore through the SAN storage with 2 different MediaAgent and having some sort of HA in case of a failure of any MediaAgent. Any recommendations regarding this configuration would be appreciated. Kind regards.
Hi Vaulters, We have all our Storage policies Primary copies being backed up to our main backup Disk Library while the data being Deduped. We acquired a new Tape Library and wanted to use it as a storage for secondary copies, i.e., we want to create a secondary copy for each Storage Policy using the Tape Library. Our main concern is the Deduplication, how the secondary copy to Tape handles the Deduplication on the Main disk Library ? Does the Dedupe cause any issue ? Regards.

Hi, maybe you have an idear: We have clients with 6 or more subclients. The Client is using windows file backup agent. Al jobs are shown completed and no failed files or folders. But sometimes we getting this message: ERROR CODE [7:331]: High amount of data to be processed in FailedFilesRetry phase is observed with bulk of the data coming from big files that can be more efficiently processed by enabling optimized backups via extent level. Review documentation to proceed.Source: XYZ, Process: clBackup (Error Lookup Site: http://kb.commvault.com/#!/?q=%227:331%22) For some subclients it is daily for the subclients its random. And all subclients are very small maybe they have 20Gb inc change rate.
I have several subclients created in the vmware client and I need to backup several subclients on the same tape

DB2 backup size is 25TB, separate on 16 disks. I saw below article.Q1, any suggestion on maximum number of concurrent parallelism queries for my 25TB DB2 restore?You can improve restore operation performance by using parallelism.If the database contains a large number of table spaces and indexes, you can perform a restore operation more quickly when you set a maximum number of concurrent parallelism queries. This takes advantage of the available input/output bandwidth and processor power of the DB2 server.https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/using_parallelism_for_enhancing_db2_restore_performance_01.htmlQ2, any suggestion on the number of buffers and buffer size for 25TB DB2 restore?ou can improve the performance of restore operations of backup images by increasing the number of buffers.https://documentation.commvault.com/v11/expert/setting_db2_buffers_for_restore_01.html
Hello,in a workflow for automated mail restore from a Exchange DB, I need the parameter folderTag and mailboxTag. How I can request/get this values for a specific user from a recovery point? As part of the recovery point creation and mining, I can see the edb file info and folderTag/mailboxTag of user within the Exchange database, in the Commvault logs… but the logs roll over, so no source to grab the parameter for the specific user. Thx, Kay
