I have some "NAS/network shares" with different backup types (network share CIFS/NFS or NDMP).The backup copies for shares using FileSystem Agent via "Network Share" can use 3DFS and those using NDMP once cannot use 3DFS. Unfortunately, I have a requirement/need to be able to use 3DFS. How can I share backups of NDMP NAS shares via 3DFS? Am I missing something, is there a setting or do I have to live with it?

 We tried to catalog a tape when we start the job it’s showing every time same error. see the error above.  Tried this steps: checked the on the storage policy leve for encryption or password: there is no password on the storage policy level or tape level. after that i used the tapegui tool to find password:   used the password without Junk_  followed the steps:   i got still the same error. 

Hi just to check do our media agents have load balancing mechanism or intelligence ? Cause in a large and scalable environment , sometimes it does not make sense to manual manage in in event of failure for any MA. I know we can configure alternate path but customer is looking at more than that . They are looking at auto balance capability within MA like our VSA.

Hi Guys, I’ve created a workflow, which was running just fine, but starting of now, one of the activities goes into pending state with error 19:857, the activity executes the following PowerShell script on the CommServ:$count = (Select-String -Pattern "string" .\file.txt).Countif ($count -ne 0) {     exit 1 } The exit code 1 here, will be forwarded to a decision block.Any help would be much appreciated.Regards.

Aux Copy was going well, but suddenly it didn't work Hitachi storage status ok. Any advice please   

So I just tried posting a very straight-forward question and it got held pending review because I somehow managed to use words that are on a hiddent “blocked words list”. That is annoying and truly user hostile. I expect that this post will also be blocked pending review of the use of hidden, uknown, naughty words.Dear CommVault - you are not serving your customers by engaging in this form of thought policing. Please stop it. Alternatively post clearly your list of naughty words so we can work around them. Thanks,Ron

In CommCell Console, in the control panel, in the Data part, when selecting Replication, the option “Enable chaining for Windows continuous data replicator agents” appears. Does anyone have more information about this action and what happens if I disable it? Than you. 

I need to check if there is any option to move the data from one mount path to another mount path in the same library. I need this to be done for mitigating over commit issue at back end storage. I am having 3-4 mount paths in which only one job is there , i want to move that one job to any other MP within the library and get that deleted so that over commit issue will get solved.  Current Version: V11 SP26.23Backend Storage : Netapp

Hello, We’ve recently been testing LiveSync and one of the tests we did was to turn off the primary test server (unplanned failover) and see if it would automatically start to failover onto the secondary test server, which it didn’t and we manually started the failover.I was wondering if this is a feature which is being looked at potentially by Commvault in the future. Many Thanks, Craig

We’re setting up a POC to use a cloud MA to copy longer term retention copies (1 and 7 year) from Azure cool blob storage to archive, and would like to use combined tier storage for the storage in the library where the long term copies will be kept.  This being our first time configuring combined tier, I tried to find documentation describing how to configure it, but as of yet have not been able to.  One question I’m hoping to answer is do we need to (or can we) pre-create the cool and archive storage accounts that will be used when configuring the new library, or is there some other way this gets done?

Hi i have an important opportunity that requires hyperscale X or commvault to support veritas OST. From veritas matrix , HSX and commvault is not under their supported vendor.Just to check is it valid from our end that it is not supported else is there any work around ?Below is a description of what OST does, seems like native capability of net backup integrate with third party storage solution." The OpenStorage Technology (OST) technology uses a plug-in architecture, similar to a software driver, that lets the third-party vendors direct the NetBackup data streams and metadata into their devices. The plug-in is developed and created by the OST partner and it resides on the media server for use by NetBackup"

Hi all,when I perform a restore from Commvault with a user configured as "sysbackup" I get a "logon denied" error: #******DATA RESTORE SCRIPT******#run {allocate channel ch1 type 'sbt_tape' connect user/33c75edba964cf91c4a814f4b013056c1f391bec0d266622e@CDB021_BCKPARMS="SBT_LIBRARY=/opt/commvault/Base/libobk.so, BLKSIZE=1048576 ENV=(CV_mmsApiVsn=2,CV_channelPar=ch1)"TRACE 0;#******** READINESS REPORT *********#  Agent Install Check:[OK] Database Check:[FAILED]    Oracle reported the following error: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied. RMAN SBT Channel Check:[FAILED]    [ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied] RMAN Catalog Check:[OK] Destination Storage Check:[OK] I believe the problem is in the Rman script.

Hi team, I need help designing a Commvault configuration for storage infrastructure renovation. We have a customer who has an old netapp storage with two arrays with snapvault and snapmirror between them managed by Commvault with OCUM and all clients using Intellisnap. The customer will refresh the storage arrays by moving SVMs to new arrays, I am not really sure if just moving the SVM will be completely transparent for Comvault transparent for Commvault or will it be necessary to configure the new arrays, the SVMs, and create the replicas from scratch again. Thank you.

I am backing up a fairly large NFS volume off a Netapp using the network share for NAS method.  There are a mix of large files and many small files.  Is it normal for a full backup to take several days (3-4) to complete?  How can I improve the speed? Currently I have a Linux Media Agent that is configured as the data access node.  Would performance increase if I add additional access nodes?

heloo everyone, can anybody tell that sangfor HCI is support for VM backup ?

I have this issue with our VM Error opening the disks for virtual machine [NSVM]. Verify that the correct transport mode is selected. See. I have tried all I could. Not until I had to use this option of intellisnap,It works but the challenge here is I used the ESXI virtual machine as a snap engine it worked but the issue is once it finished doing backup of that virtual machine it doesn't delete the snap from the VM I have what setting I can implement to achieve this.

Hi I have a customer that has linux and aix hosts in their environment and they have lots of small files within these 2 filesystems. Currently , they have HDS G500 as their underlying storage. As they are experiencing slow backup and restoration for their current veritas solution , hence i decided to propose intellsnap as part of the competitive take out value proposition.We know that intellisnap helps to create app aware snapshots. IntelliSnap extends beyond just creating or deleted snapshots/clones. Secondary operations are automatically mounted to a proxy server which will mount the snapshots/clones for further processing, whether that is further indexing or cataloging of the data or creating longer term copies of the data to deduplicated disk, cloud copies, or tape. This content aware process provides rapid recovery options whether a full system recovery or a single file is required.Question is once we are done with the intellisnap , can we do image backup which tr

Backup Set 1 has this errorThere is no error when I create and receive backup set 2.  

I have four MA in prod, (partitioned ddb) with 3 installed in the E; drive. which is the standard here. I have a couple dozen other configured the same.one of the four is installed in C; drive and must be re-installed to E:. (for scripting purposes)Any recommendations? TIA Yan

Hello, What happens if i pick only the log option when configuring full and incremental backups?  Thanks,

Can anyone point me towards the documentation on how to set the Advanced Backup Options for SQL Server Default subclients through REST API? I can’t seem to find where to set these in the API docs. I’ve attached an image of the props I’m looking for.

Hello,Can I change the Secondary Copy schedule from the webconsole?I haven’t used the webconsole very much but with deploying a new commcell I’d thought I’d look into it. I do know how to handle it from the javaconsole. Documentation didn’t give me much as it is a mix odfjavaconsole and webconsole content (confusing)Best regards Henrik  

is there any way to reconfigure a deleted file system core and agent that is configured before?i deleted them since i thought that we dont need to backup the FS and retain the SQL only.i tried update and repair software but it was still not appearing. When i tried install software. the file system and core is already greyed out.  i want the file system to appear again like this.  

Hi All, Greetings for the day!Currently we are using Microfocus data protector backup tool with HPE Storeonce catalyst now we planning to move the clients to commvault. As per my understanding restoring the third party tool we require the stage server with commvault migration components then access the third party tool and select the client then restore into commvault. Please correct me if i am wrong

Hi guys, We are implementing an Air Gapped DR site, so the DR site only receives an offline copy from the main one through aux copies.For aux copies, we only disabled their schedule from the “System Created Autocopy Schedule” and created a new specific schedule which start the aux copies to the DR site after the blackout window. Since the DR MAs and Library are only accessible during the Air Gap window, I was wondering if rescheduling the remaining system created jobs (DDB Backup, DDB Verification, DDB Space Reclamation, Data Aging) to the Air Gap period doesn’t cause any issue when running at the same time with the Aux Copies (Our Aux Copies use Deduplication). I know that, when running the DDB Backup jobs, this may cause issues with Aux Copies as of the screenshot below :
