Appreciate if someone can clarify below question,we have critical system backup run mid night and if incase the backup job doesn't complete before working hours we need the jobs to be queued or killed , which one to use  , i can below option for schedule which i can apply for individual task under a schedule , what if I enable total running time but didnot selected kill running job when total running time expires ? and if i set blackout window for client or server groups how it will affect,suppose my job starts at 12 am midnight and i set blackout window from 8 am to 6 pmwhat happends to a job which started midnight and could not complete before 8 , will it get killed or suspended or queued ,?i can set blackout window for individual client from java console can i do the same with comcell console without creating the server group

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 

Push installation is failed on Linux Agent. Error Code: [68:176]Description: Client might not have connectivity from CommServer/Remote Cache or user credentials provided are incorrect. Ping is workingTelnet is working from client to commcellRemote cache is update to date 11.63 verssionVerified user name and password RegardsRobert

is it included in the commvault oracle backup phase , or if a customer want to export and backup this is there anyway to be done it with commvault , instead of backing up the  dumb saved location 

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 a full backup of the original machine as its still in production and has had some chanages that need to be backed up.TIA for any help!

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.

In my environnent I want to separate production from development, what are the best practices regarding hypervisors, one for production and another for development or anything...For Azure VM backup

I am trying to create a JSON payload to submit to qoperation the problem I seem to be running into is that I can’t access the properties of the cliententity object.I tried to see what would happen if i did something like  logger.info(servers[0].clientName)and the output I get is null.This is what the script looks like: This is what the for loop looks like: This is the output:  Clearly I am doing something wrong.I posted this in the private area in hope it would get more traction.Thanks.

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

HiWe want to upgarde Hyperscale 1.5 OS current 7.7 to latest 7.9 and we have follow following URL Installing Operating System Updates on Existing Nodes (commvault.com)Initially it failed due to to able to download OS upgrade from Commvault site during creation of remote cache, then we have fixed download and downloaded. Now we running script  “./cvupgradeos.py” and getting following error, how we can make RPM query complete “Previous software download and rpm query job was not successful.

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?  

Does placing the system-created ddb backup within a deduplication storage policy have any effect?Or is it preferable to set the storage policy of a system-generated ddb backup to no deduplication policy? 

Hello, We have some data/volumes/svm backed up from Netapp using NDMP protocol. Data was baked up when CS was v11 FR24. Meanwhile the data was migrated to a new Dell Unity NAS device. We have in backup as well the "new” migrated data using NDMP protocol (CS v11 FR28/2022e), while the old SVM on Netapp was decommissioned. I need to restore cross-platform some files/folders from NDMP Netapp backed up v11FR24 into NDMP Dell Unity backed up now via v11FR28. The idea is i do not have the option to select as destination any Dell Unity device (so nothing in the drop down menu as an option for Destination where to restore, only some bunch of unix/windows servers). Is this type of restore supported? i remember in the past that i did it (Netapp to dell, but fr24 to fr24), not so sure though and i might be wrong. Any thought/hint on this it will be highly appreciated! Thank you!

Good day Community, I did Windows file server archiving in the past using the CommCell Console. But now, using the Command Center, get’s me so confused.I’m not talking NAS, but simple Windows Servers. Which packages should be installed, and where? Do I install packages on the Windows server itself? Do I just use a MediaAgent as an Access Node? In this case which packages on the MediaAgent? And to make sure that stub recalls work for people having a mapped drive on the Windows server?I try to understand BOL (Essential) and can’t figure it out, and been spending hours in labs not able to make it work. :-(If someone could go over the high-level steps would be AWESOME!And just in case, is DFS still not supported for archiving?Thanks in advance.

How to calculate how much network bandwidth is required if I am backing up 5TB of data and backup window is 12 hours? 

Hi,I’ve configured a Virtual Server Backup and i’ve run Create VM Clients on the deafult subclient, after that all the VMs have it’s own client with the backup set.That backupSet already have backups and I cannot delete it.Do you know hoy can I delete the backupset generated on the VM Clients?Thak you so much in advanced.

HiIs there any way how to remove the setting  sCSINTERFACELIST on the media agent?The reason for my question is, because I have removed Commvault LiveSync, and the old Commvault standby node is removed also. And I want to avoid any communication to the old standby node. Thanks in advance!
