We have been experiencing checkpoint backup failures for VMs on Hyper-V Failover cluster. The CSVFS volume is having 30% free space. How much is the free space needed for the VSA backups to complete for Microsoft Hyper-V Virtual machines. In VMware it is recommended to keep 10% free space on the datastore.
Hi all,We encrypted our databases with TDE in a pilot project and figured that Commvault SQL module makes the backup 8 times larger compared database dump on the disk (SQL 2016, compression enabled).What is recommended Commvault configuration so that we retain the size SQL Server can achieve? We moved from filesystem backup to native backup few years ago and currently it looks like we need to move back! Has anyone implemented this with good results, please? Thank you.
Team,A customer is evaluating to capacity of using DSQL, is the Aurora PostGreSQL will support DSQL ?https://aws.amazon.com/fr/rds/aurora/dsql/
I have 2 media agents connected to tape library with 8 drives… and they both host a Plan and I can’t seem to have the aux copies to tape to use more than one drive. Each plan has 30 Streams and the aux copies use the primary copy as the source copyEach also have an aux copy going to the other one (01 to 02 and 02 to 01) . In the media tab, I’ve combined source data streams to 2 and I did not multiplex..Should I use the second copy as the source for the tape copy then?I find this whole part a bit confusingthxG

Dears,,I created a new linux virtual machine and installed the Commvault Virtual Server package on it in order to use it as a VSA Access Node for our vCenter environment. However, the server does not appear as an available Access Node, and I am unable to use it for VMware backups.

If Compliance Lock is enabled on a Storage Policy, Does it affect anything else in the storage pool?
Hello,We have a client running file system level backups. Recently we associated it with a new storage policy and ran fresh full backups expecting a new Index will be created for that job.Running Synthetic-full backup ( after few incremental backups ) triggers Index restore job from the previous storage policy where the copy data paths were on a different media agent.The Index restore job fails as the communication between the current used media agent and previous one is blocked.Any Idea how to force the creation of new Index or to avoid the reference to the previous Index ? Thanks
Hi, Is it possible to perform a backup using the Block-based Backup technique with Separate proxy for Backup Copy? Client is a virtual machine running Oracle Linux (64-bit), VMware Tools version:11269 (Guest Managed) The data is on the “Hard disk 3” mounted on /mnt/data. It’s an RDM disk. The Block-based Backup technique is working fine. When I check the IntelliSnap option and try to use a Separate proxy for Backup Copy (selecting a virtual machine Linux Media Agent Data Mover), the job completes with errors. Error Code: [32:392]Description: Unable to find OS device(s) corresponding to clone(s). Possible reasons could be 1) Improper FC/iSCSI H/W connection between the host and the array 2) The OS didn't find the device corresponding to the clone. : [Unable to find device(s) corresponding to snap(s)/clone(s)]Source: cvault-ma-09, Process: FileScanAccording to the documentation, Block-level backup operations have the following phases:Snapshot copy phaseBackup copy phaseBoth of thes

Tested against a 11.40 commserveI tested it with with a windows 2019 box.OpenJDK25Ucommand java –jar netx.jartarget is a 11.36.72 machineconnection Ok, but browser on the left site does not work.! (classic view)Cannot start jobmanager!Same test with OpenJDK21U shows no issues.Checked dokuOpening the CommCell Console Using the Command Line InterfaceThe minimum JRE version on the computer must be the same major version that Commvault deploys (or a newer minor/patch level).It should workThere are many options for the java command. Which options are to use with OpenJDK25U to get the Commcell Console work as before?
I can't add the hypervisor. We've already checked the communications and the credentials are correct. Does anyone have any idea why? The Commvault version is 11.34.28.
Hi, I raised https://github.com/Commvault/cvpysdk/issues/191 for the immediate need we have, but in general I would like to raise more awareness to ensure Commvault SDK’s do not keep on using deprecated API calls going forward. Could someone please own the SDK updates in case a specific API call is deprecated to ensure the correct API endpoints are being used? Thanks!
Hello, is there any official article in the CV documentation, which would clearly state, that the VM does not need to be protected by the Virtual Server Agent (VSA) to consume a VOI license. As long as the File System Agent is installed and the VM is detected, any in-guest agent backups (e.g., SQL, Oracle, Exchange, AD) will be covered under the VOI license. Arlie gives me the link and says that here this is written explicitely:https://documentation.commvault.com/commvault/v11/others/pdf/commvault-complete-license-guide.pdfBut I get error 404 when trying to open it. Best regards, Aleksandra
Hi,We accidentally added fields to the Access Node configuration for SharePoint Online and can no longer remove them. In our case, specifically the field: “shared job results path.”Does anyone know of a way we can remove this field?

Hi,we are currently facing the following situation:We write data on a NAS system via NFS, e.g. on “folder A”. Then we want to create a symlink to this folder, called “folder B”.“Folder B” is then presented via CIFS/SMB to our Windows Media Agents.Will the backup work and backup all the data or will it only see the symlink and just backup the symlink-file?I know that we can just share “folder B” via CIFS, but my colleagues want to do it with the symlink if possible. Any clues or ideas if that would work? BRJan
