In-case there is a data verification job running for longer period of days ( more than a week) - will it has any impact on the daily data pruning job for the storage policies  that are associated with that particular DDB engine ?As per the data pruning logic to make a job eligible for pruning  --Data aging operation job needs to run for the jobs which are already completed its retention- only then it will be eligible/marked for aging. On the other hand data verification/DDB verification job validates all the associated jobs on the DDB. So if when a DDB verification job is  running, will it create any lock on the jobs( assume some of them already complete retention days ) so until this complete - data aging job will not be able to marked these for pruning ? Which one has the priority over another one ?

I have been trying to reduce the number of Alerts coming from Commvault so that the ones which are raised are actionable (something needs to be done about them).However, I do see some strange ones that I don’t expect to see, like:The system detected events that are unusual in occurrence or frequency in CSNAME.     Server    Event time    Event    Occurrence    Anomaly typeCSNAME2022-11-13 00:56:27    Backup job [1346233] completed.

Hello Community, I am planning to configure Commvault software encryption withCipher: AES;Length: 128;Direct media access: No access. Can you provide me with more information on how the integrity of encrypted data is verified during the data verification process?Specifically, are there any performance implications such as increased CPU/memory usage on the CommServe/Media Agent server or longer data verification completion times when compared to regular data verification processes? thanks

Hello guys. I was using the Commcell Console normally without problems, from one day to the next, without any change, an error started to be displayed "Commserve Connection is lost, Do you wnat to reconnect?".  Clicking on "yes", the user and password are asked again, and after inserting it, the same error is displayed, and the console no longer logs in. I followed the steps in this documentation, “https://kb.commvault.com/article/54133” which says it is a certificate problem related to the "CVSession.dll" file, but looking at the certificate, the ce

Hi, When can we expect the 2023/FR30 videos to be published on the on-demand library?  In addition I want to notify that the mentioned mail address doesn't seem to be working. I dropped a mail and received a NDR back.

Unusual performance drop detected in pruning for following deduplication databases: [GDSP_ALL_<Servername_8]: due to increase in (CommServe Job Records to be Deleted) - Check details in: http://backupserver:80/webconsole/reportsplus/reportViewer.jsp?idstringIf i check the report, it’s grown from 0 to 12399 commserve job records to be deleted from 9’th january to today the 18’th.….However, this media-agent is a media-agent that is spending half it’s life completely offline and shut down, and it has been shut down since the 9’th, and powered on again today, so i assume this is expected behavior, but because i have not seen this message before, i figured i’d check with the hivemind first :-) Software version is: 11.24.78

Hi, We’re shortly rolling out OneDrive for Business in Prod and I am looking for the possibility to filter contents in Commvault so that only certain data gets backed up:exclude files / file types exclude folders only backup certain foldersI will need to deploy OneDrive backup at the time of the roll-out of the service. We are currently running 11.20 but I was told at the Webinar for 11.22 that this is possible in 11.22 (office365V2).In order to test, I installed a separate instance and connected it to our Azure UAT. I have the list of users discovered but cannot find the option to filter contents over the Admin Console. Moreover, the Office365 OneDrive App is not visible in Comcell Console at all.Am I missing something?Thank you,Zoltan

Hello,We have running a Linux Database server (Oracle), the database data is sitting on LUNs on NetApp. Now in a case of hardware failure or any ransomware attack, we need recover the system with 1-touch recovery.We found issue to exclude the LUNs with 1-touch recovery.we created an autoanswer file, with (1-touch recover points), in the guy we are not able to unselect volumes which are coming from LUNs.During the recovery procedure it stops with error in the 2. stage, error: not enough space selected for restore.This was for a restore test to a virtual machine!In real scenario, to restore the server back to physical hardware, I see a similar issue a as we using VLAN tagging on our network. So we will not have our storage LAN online, which bring the LUNs to the server, so we need again to bring first only the OS back online, and configure then the LUNs.we are use:Linux Redhat 7.9CommVault V11SP28.36 (E2022)regards

Hello,I would like to know how exactly backups work for compressed Oracle DBs on a Exadata platform.Does it need to rehydrate the data before sending it to a mediaagent?If so, is there any specific requirement for that to happen? like extra RAM or extra disk?Is it the same for non Exadata environments?Thanks!Sergio.

Hi,I’m a relative newcomer to Metallic, and I’m working with one of our Oracle DBAs to form a recovery plan for his environment, a series of Oracle RAC instances.One of the tests we’re trying to run is a restore of a Table (as opposed to a Tablespace) - documentation is unclear on the subject, but Metallic allows us to step through and submit a job to restore In-place. The problem we’re seeing is that the job fails early on, with the following error dump:“18:183 Failed with Oracle DB/RMAN error [channel ORA_AUX_SBT_TAPE_1: ORA-19870: error while restoring backup piece 15532648_BIRESTOR_0r1hpnd4_27_1_1 ORA-19502: write error on file "/Exadata_11g_Backup/Bob_Test4/BIRESTOR/datafile/o1_mf_system_kwj1m5hj_.dbf", block number 234496 (block size=8192)”.I’ve got a support ticket open with Metallic and there’s a suggestion that what we’re trying

We have a number of duplicated servers which show the server name with an appended number on the end but show up as duplicates in the console. An example is joebloggscs01 showing as joebloggscs01_2. Our 3rd party consultants say these are eating up licenses, even though they are showing as grey and deconfigured in the CommCell. We have a few servers showing like this and they have a job histories so I wasn't sure if they could be deleted because the job ID’s are not the same as the configured server, if that makes sense. Also in addition its showing as we have 261 servers licensed, when I deconfigured 10 servers to take it to 251, the Web Console report is still showing these servers as holding a license.  is there a time lag at all as to when the report will reflect the true number. I have logged a ticket with support but like coming to the community as you guys have helped me in the past. Please HELP!! 😀 ThanksTonyQ

Hello,I would like to know how the “release license” option works for Office 365.When using it, license is recovered and it can be used with another user, correct?Will we be able to recover the old backup data of the user who is no longer licensed? if so, for how long?ThanksSergio

I noticed a VM names mismatch in the JavaUI and WebUI.VMs in the JavaUI sometimes have a different name in the WebUI.Commvault support says it is probably because of the additional setting on the CS: “https://documentation.commvault.com/additionalsetting/details?name=%22DontRenameVMClients%22&id=7490” Unfortunately, it is not documented on our end why this is set on this particular CS.I would like to remove it, but would like to know when/why this setting should be used.Anyone? Thanks.

Hi,SQL 2022 was just released this morning. Just wondering if it is supported by Commvault for SQL DB backup? https://documentation.commvault.com/v11/essential/143077_microsoft_sql_server_agent_system_requirements.html From the link the latest edition that is supported is SQL 2019 but it also said the page was last updated on Thursday, August 05, 2021. Kind regards,Boyi

Hello Community,11.24.43intellisnap for vmware has two phases:1. snap backup/snap copy2. backup copy I am planning to implement IntelliSnap for VMware backup to WORM storage (Azure container), and according to the Commvault documentation, the 'SnapCopy (Job-based retention)' feature is not supported for WORM storage.https://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/expert/9251_configuring_worm_storage_mode_on_cloud_storage.htmlActually, Job-based retention is set at the subclient properties level. If I don't set job-based retention, will both SnapCopy and Backup Copy be supported by Commvault for this scenario?
