We're running FR30.43 and a customer asked us if there are ways to improve backup/recovery performance of a Windows File Server cluster based on Windows Storage Spaces Direct. Our customers manage everything via Command Center and have to access to the CommCell console. From the CommCell console there are/were several ways that allowed you to improve backup/restore performance:Enable the option "Allow multiple data readers within a drive or mount point" Increase data readers Spread contents over multiple subclientsBesides the last one mentioned the other two mentioned cannot be set/tweaked when you use protection plans. So, my questions is what is the default behaviour when using plans and what options can you implement that improve backup/recovery performance for large file servers. 

one of our client need test the one of the backup in every month to make sure that they have a working backup copy , is there anyway we can automate this process where each month end, it trigger a restore operation to using live mount and does the testing and delete it ,and send a report to team, is it achievable using workflow , can anyone help how can i build

Hi,I have a problem with Commserve failover replication.the job stops in the database restore phase with the error “received failed message for job [], phase [database Restore].Can you help me please? 

Hi, in the advanced restore options in BOL.https://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/expert/34600_restoring_sql_server_data_with_exclusive_database_access_option.html It says : Restore of database fails if exclusive access to database cannot be obtained. In such scenarios use the Drop Connections to Database option to drop all existing connections to the database. By default this option is set to false. But at my customer this option is enabled by default ! Where can you change this to OFF by default ? Thank you,

I have an Oracle Linux 7.9 system that was configured with 1 touch and ive done a BMR on different hardware (same configuration) with a new IP and hostname and also selected the option to clone.  The one touch restore/clone went well on the other server however, a full 1 touch back up on the original is now throwing an error and Im unsure what I can do the rectify the issue.The specific message I receive is:Error Code: [6:966]Description: System state backup failed : [Failed to create a tar archive containing /tmp/initrd.img /boot/vmlinuz-5.4.17-2102.201.3.el7uek.x86_64 /tmp/ARCH /tmp/binfmt /tmp/ver ]Source: Hostname, Process: sr when i look at the server, initrd.img doesnt exist in /tmp.  Neither do the subfolders /ver or ARCHIve tried to reinstall/repair the client on the original machine, but it has not helped.  Any ideas what i can do to get

Hi,I’m trying to configure an automatic schedule for archive logs, We’ve configured the automatic schedule as the following screenshot: We would like to know if that percetage is associated with the disk utilization and if its possible to configure with the FRA utilization, for example, when the FRA is 70% Full run an archive logs full backup.We’ve testes and doesn’t seems to run the backup but a second opinion would be great. Best regards and thanks in advanced.

Hi! We are trying to replicate an Azure VM to a storage account located in a different region. Backup of the virtual machine worked, but when trying to use the “Replicate now" prompt, replication fails due to a sync error. Further investigation into the replication group/VM showed the error “One of the disks exceeds the maximum allowed size for an Azure VHD page blob". Is there a way to work around this? Specially that we are planning to replicate even larger capacity VMs. Any help is greatly appreciated

We have multiple backup data libraries (50TB+ each), we have mirrored one using storage mirroring techniques (NetApp). We’re planning on going into maintenance mode and changing the library mount path to new location after syncing and breaking mirror relationship.  Is there anything we’re missing or need to be aware of when modifying library backup data paths?  

In the past I believe (after upgrading the commvault environment, commserve/media agents, etc) a standalone java console would prompt “download and install updates?” and then the user would click “yes” and it would upgrade itself.  I’m on 11.24 and my standalone consoles are just throwing up a pop up saying basically ‘the console is behind. upgrade your console’. The console still runs after hitting “ok”, but its rather annoying.In the past (if a console would not auto update when launched) I would have to manually build a package with an installer tool, copy it to the client machine, and then run the upgrade.Is there a way for users to “upgrade the console themselves” through the Java UI ( or a setting that will cause the console to auto upgrade if needed?) without having to build an installer/upgrade package and send it to them?
