We are building up a high-available Postgresql cluster by using HA-Proxy, etcd and Patroni.In this design the postgres-instances are controlled by the patroni-service and are located in a separate directory on a dedicated lvm each. There is also the socket-file stored.While trying to connect, Commvault is looking in the default directory ‘/var/run/postgresql/’ for the socket-file and then failes, because it is located in an instance-specific directory instead like ‘/data/patroni/instance1/’Is there a way to tell Commvault this path? Like in the MySQL iDA where there is a field specific for the “Socket File”?

Hello,Is there a script that prevents a tape from being reused? Only script i found was the mark tape full, but that doesn´t assure me that the tape won’t get used once the data in it expires.I have around 12k tapes that i need to prevent reuse and doing it via GUI doens’t seem to be very workable.Any ideas? Kind regards,Amaral

I upgraded my CommServ to 11_20_85 and I read that this would remediate the log4j vulnerability. So I had the IA folks rescan the server and it came back hot and this is the path they sited. E:\ProgramFiles\Commvault\ContentStore\CVCIEngine\CvPreviewHome\webapps\CvContentPreviewGenApp\WEB-INF\lib\log4j-1.2.17.jar - they are advising to upgrade to a version of Apache Log4j

Hello,I’m aware that in Commvault, settings at Client level are more important than those at Client Computer Groups or CommCell level. I know that it was mentioned somewhere in docs, but after spending 2 hours on looking for it I gave up. Can someone give me a hand and point where it is?  regards,Łukasz. 

Hi all! In our environment, we have constant scanning of ports from Qualys and other network security tools.  We are always randomly having ports seemingly blocked, or port exhaustion, or in use from scanning.  We can’t quit put our finger on the whole occasional pipeline error, or other CommVault network error.   We are 95% virtual something like 5,000 Vm.  Would anyone have any suggestions on how we can protect our infrastructure from the scans, and port blocks?  Can I use topology between the 20 hyperscale media agents and commserve to force them onto 8403?  Any suggestions?

Hi,Need guidance on how do we properly reclaim some space from the successful backup jobs? Is there a way to delete manually the backup jobs? if there is, when I deleted the backup jobs do the capacity I free up from the deleted backup job will immediately reflected from the Storage Pool?  

Hi all, This might be a stupid question but customer asks why cvlt requires root/admin privilege on each platform for installation and operation.Anyone who can articulate this briefly in technical perspective?Thanks.

Hi Community ,As a security ask , can we implement Commvault user authentication while installing or uninstalling cv software either locally or through console ?I observe that while installing CV software locally , user authentication is required but while uninstalling there is no authentication requirement. Let me know if this is done for a purpose?  

i need explanation why commvault uses yellow ports ?

Hey all -I was under the impression that if we install a SQL agent on a VM, it does NOT use capacity.  This capacity licensing is ear marked for a main frame backup.  Thoughts?  Do we need to open a ticket?  Thanks!

I hope this is simple to answer for someone.  I looked in the Azure portal but was unable to find what I was looking for. We’re new to using Azure archive for our secondary copies, and the billing seems higher than expected.  Actual billing is showing about five times higher than estimates.  We’re wondering if some data is in hot or cool rather than archive.  Is there an easy way to identify what is in hot, cool, and archive by a chart or something in the portal?

I have a customer that has asked about the protection of Azure Queue and Table storage, I can’t see anything on documentation about it so I assume it’s not supported as yet. Is there anything I’ve missed? They’ve also asked about classic storage accounts but I’m pretty sure they’re no longer supported.Any guidance on these would be great.
