I need help, all my jobs are failing with the same error below.  

I had this issue; wherein I had installed Linux agent; which took a bit of time and waited on Registering screen during the install.  After the install it would not show up on the Commserve console screen; I had tried closing console; opening it; restarting services on the server.  Finally had to do the repair install which is an option one gets when you rerun ./cvpkgadd 

HelloAfter the backup is completed on the Linux Client server on which the File system agent is installed, the used memory cannot be returned.Memory returns normally after the server power is restarted.However, after the backup starts again and is complete, the memory used for the backup is not returned again. The backup job for this server starts at 21:00 every day. This is the amount of change in memory before and after the backup starts after the server power is rebooted. After the backup is complete, the memory usage is as follows.

The commvault client failed to install when manually installing and now we get the window of “Unfinished installation detected”  Resume install OR Clean up unfinished installation and start over.  I would like to run the Clean Up Unfinished installation and Start Over but this radio button is not selectable.  I have seen this in the past and I believe there is a registry setting that can be changed to make that option selectable. Does anyone know the registry setting?  Using Version 11.24.34

Hello everyone, IHAC who runs huge VM environment and given their infra env commcell should be divided into several domains. And they plan to configure a license server for streamlined license use. (capacity based)Let’s say customer configures 3 commcells - one license server and two child commcells.I figured out child commcells pull the license from license server as much as they need.Assuming a child commcell pulled the license of 20TB quantity but become to use just 10TB as many clients are retired.For this situation, does child commcells return the unused license of 10TB by itself? or license server take back it automatically? Thanks

In the Commvault “public cloud architecture guide for amazon web services” is a note about using only a single mount path when using AWS S3:Do not create multiple mount paths to generate additional Amazon S3 performance, Amazon S3 increased request rate enhancements have removed the need to randomize object prefixes to achieve faster performance with S3.But my question is: what’s the recommended mount path count when using an on-prem S3 Storage system as library in Commvault? The vendor of the storage does not care. They say they can handle one single bucket in one single mount path and scale unlimited. But what about Commvault?

Hello everyone!I've configured a File Server with a Data Drive and a System State Backup. I'm a little perplexed when I look at the AUX copy history because of the following numbers. For your convenience, I've attached a sample AUX copy behavior.Commvault is not copying data based on date and is jumping back and forth in time.I couldn't find any sort of prioritization system based on the date, backup type, or content.Can anyone describe how Commvault prioritizes data for secondary copies and how that priority can be changed?Is it possible to define a client-based priority for Aux copy? Thanks in Advance,Manikandan

Hello, I would like to set up a HotAdd node in our vcenter. We have already deployed a VM with Windows Server 2022. Is there any kind of How to guide to do the Commvault part here ? 

We use RestAPI to get space usage values of our Libraries in Commvault for reporting purposes, especially Total Capacity, Free Space and Used Space.For Disc Libraries this is no problem, but we’re currently doing testing with S3 Storage as Libraries and there we face an issue with that, as these values can’t be extracted.In the Command Center we see the “Size on disk”With QCommands (qlist media -l) we see the  “TOTAL DATA(GB)” And with RestAPI (GET Library Details) we see “N/A”  Quota on the S3 Bucket has been set,

Hello, since I am not so fit in the backend, I would like to know how I can check why a backup which was backed up via SAN can only be restored via NBD.with kind regardsThomas 

Hello!I'm using the cvpysdk in order to restore SQL Server databases, but unfortunately I can't find an option to restore out of place and change the name of the database.Maybe someone here faced this issue and can help me with this?

Hello, we need to move a media agent and the backup storage to another rack in April. Our environment is configured so that the backup storage volumes are set up as CSV (Clustered Shared Volumes).So both media agents can access the backup storage of the other site. If we had to move only the media agent, I would say that it is enough to put it into maintenance mode in Commvault. Then we could shut down the media agent and install it in the new rack. However, since the site's backup storage also goes offline, the question would be whether we could still keep the backup service running or if we would have to plan for downtime. I know that backup jobs run on errors with the storage policy for the affected site. I would also redirect these to the second site for the time period. The point of my question is whether Commvault will have a problem when volumes are no longer accessible. Kind RegardsThomas

Hi..  When setting a Blackout Window on a schedule policy the clients time zone is honored… Any way to make it honor the time zone on the CS instead?  (v11.25.29)Thank you.. /Rubeck 

Hey, I have a question about DFS: In the area CN=System you can find the backed up DFS part which can be restored. However, this does not provide me with any further information about, for example, the DFS paths behind it at the time of the backup or the permissions that were entered. Is there at Commvault the possibility to get more detailed into the backed up AD points to DFS. So that one does not have to make a "half-blind" restore.  

Hello Everyone I’ve found that I can enable IntelliSnap backup for Google GCP VM Intances. What exactly does it mean? I am familiar with IntelliSnap for other solutions (VMware, Hyper-V and so on) and IntelliSnap makes hardware snapshot of vol/LUN when backuped data lives. I wasn’t able to find any related information how process of IntelliSnap backup within GCP VM environment works. What is the sequence, where snapshots are maintained, what is the difference between regular streaming GCP VSA VM backups and IntelliSnap ones. IBOL states “enable checkbox to run IntelliSnap”, but I am technical guy, I would like to know what does it mean ;) Any theoretical knowledge & experience? Kindest regards,M.
