Hi,I’m looking into an issue with a VM that hosts a MySQL database. The MySQL admins are complaining about poor performance during VM Backups. My first guess is quiescing that is potentially causing issues. (Transport Mode is Hotadd)The MySQL database is also being backed up using the MySQL iData Agent. This works without issues. However, the customer also wants a filesystem consistent VM backup and that is where the issue comes in.Looking at the backup details and logs, I don’t see any issues.Any idea what next steps I could take here? I’m looking at the possibility to take a crash consistent snapshot to test my theory.

Just looking for good ideas here.

Often we see cases where Check Readiness is failing or backups failing due to communication issues. Whether these clients be Media Agents, VSA Proxies, Exchange servers or Linux FS.This article will cover common issues that, we, as support frequently come across in tickets that are raised.Check readiness is a simple tool that can be run from the CommCell or Command Center that does a network check to ensure that the Commvault Ports are opened and listening.The first things we want to check:Are Commvault services running on client? Is DNS resolving? Are the required ports opened? Is Windows firewall enabled? 

Hello,I’m looking at upgrading all my Windows file system agents to the same service pack as our management server.I wanted to do this via creating a package and have the package sent to the servers via sccm as some of the servers have to be manually patched.I was wondering if anyone has done this before? any advice would be appreciated. Many Thanks, Craig

 Commvault backup job fail and reason VMInfo unknown error. v11 

Good day all As we know the FR26 upgrade highlights the requirement to upgrade password complexity to Level 3.I’ve gone through all the local accounts (safe to assume the Domain accounts are not queried) and I’m still seeing the alert.I’ve looked to see if there is a way to list which accounts are the problem, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to list them.Does anyone have any solution to this?Thanks,Mauro

Hello, if you have backup jobs on tape and want to delete the contents and reuse the tape, can you just right click the tape and delete contents? I do not know if you right click delete contents will cause any issues in CV with the jobs associated to the tape contents.  

Hello!How I can just delete DDB when server with this DDB no longer exists? and these DDB are no longer needed. Why do simple actions in Commvault cause “pain”?

Hi All,During the PostgreSQL backup the C: drive is filling up to 100%. The database itself has about 400 GB on D: drive.The disk space used on C: is 34 GB when no backups are running.

Hello, Commvault Community,I was searching for documentation about GlusterFS, but not sure if the lead I found really applies to what I want.   I was wondering if there is a way to globally exclude files that are of type “fuse.glusterfs”?   I found this in the doc, but not sure if it applies to what I’m researching.  Exclude Files From Backup Operations in Hybrid File Store (commvault.com)Situation:GlusterFS replicates data multiple times over the cluster, i.e. one file turns into 5 copies across the nodes in the cluster (assuming there are five nodes).  We have an exclusion list defined in the Global or Client Filters, but this only works if we know where glusterfs types are being stored. We recently discovered an unaccounted glusterfs nodes, and as consequenc

Hello Community, Will there be any impact to exchange online user mailbox backups due to the latest change listed on Microsoft digest? one of my customer is worried if this can impact backups by any chance.More information about change can be found under following link:https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/exchange-team-blog/change-in-naming-convention-of-user-s-name-parameter/ba-p/3284733 

Is it possible to create an automatic updated group of clients which have had successful VM backups. The members would be the VMs not the VMware cluster.

Hello!This is Stefano, I’m using CommVault since years.For business needs I have to migrate some of our clients from our existing CommCell to a new one (I already requested and applied the auth code for both).This use case is partially covered by online documentation, but some of the steps are not really clear to me.My source environment is the following:- CS running on a VMware virtual machine;- Media Agents are physical HPE boxes, and they uses some big HPE MSAs storage;- a few VMware subclients to be migrated. Some others needs to stay in the source env. With regards to VMware subclients, to better manage the migration I already moved the subclients in a dedicated Virtual Client, with the result to have:- subclients that must stay in the source --> VMware vCenter client "A"- subclients that must be migrated --> VMware vCenter client "B" As said, Media Agents are physical boxes and one of t

Hi, A customer is using Debian as their Linux distribution choice. We are planning for Linux MediaAgents, so it’s natural that customer wants it on Debian, however looking at BOLhttps://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/expert/2822_mediaagent_system_requirements.htmlThere is only one version of Debian listed as supported platform for MediaAgent installation. To make it worse it is Debian 9.x which is pretty old already and currently partially, but soon to be completely EOShttps://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/ Is it just a oversight in BOL?Are newer versions on Debian like v10.x and 11.x supported as MediaAgent platforms? If anyone could share some
