Hi community!I have faced the error like this recently:Failed to recreate OFM snap; Continuing with live data only, error=0x80070306:{COpenFileManager::CheckAndRecreateShadow(118)/W32.774.(One or more errors occurred while processing the request.)-Maximum OFM snapshot retry count reached, RetryMax=3} The job was configured to fail if the VSS fails. But the job finished successfully. Looks like smth. blocks access to the files included to the VSS snap. Did anyone see the error like this? Thanks in advance!
Hi, We are currently implementing Commvault, transferring from TSM, and Teradata is part of this. The plan was to use the Commvault Workflow integrating with the arcmain utility.arcmain is going end of life and customer will update to the new dsa integration for exporting (backing up) data. Is there any plans from Commvault to provide an updated workflow for this any time soon./Patrik
Hi all,I have a really weird problem:Our customer noticed, that by end of November 2020 (28th / 29th), the scheduled jobs for the VSA backups (VMware) did stop working. There are no failed jobs, but only a gap in the backup history.When a job is started manually via the schedule policy ("run immediately"), the message "Failed to run task. No associations exist." appears. Starting the jobs manually via the subclient works on the other hand. The backup activity is not disabled on any level (Client, Agent, Backup Set, subclient, client group… ).Jobs for other clients associated to the same schedule policies work fine. But all scheduled jobs for all subclients of the affected client do not start by schedule.All jobs that are scheduled are Synthetic fulls with the option to first start an incremental before synthetic full enabled.If I start an incremental job manually, the next scheduled job starts. But only once. Also, I can use “Run immediately” once when I started an incremental before.
A Windows file backup subclientis configured:Content: J:\Filter: J:\HomeFilter exception: J:\Home\**\KeyFilter exception is not backuped. What could be the cause? Thank you.

Hi all,Is it possible if some explain the process of committing chunks to lib and signature in ddb. I read somewhere that chunk will keep on noting all data blocks even it is repeated. Actually m confused with that statement . Might b my understanding is wrong but need help to understand exactly when ddb signatures will be committed to ddb and when will chunk will get committed ?
not sure if I should create a new thread or not for my ms sql Bt.. for our MS SQL Client - what is the required steps to capturing a routine backup of the MS SQL msdb, master, and model dbs
Im a rookie commvault user. What does the “\” back slash represent for the Default subclient of a Windows agent. Does this mean it will back up all local drives (c:\, D:\ and e:\ etc...) along with system state?.. Well I see system state is check box is selected so thats a no brainer.. Our server has has multiple.. local drives (C, D, and E) and I didnt know if I needed to create subclients to back these drives up? I know I could just run a test backup but we arent there just yet with our s3 bucket...Thanks in advanceBC

Hi,Me again. Now regarding the “ File Duplicates Dashboard” (or other dashboards).The docs regarding this dashboard: https://documentation.commvault.com/commvault/v11/article?p=118036.htmThis report you can export to pdf/html.But that report only contains the “collapsed” first page: So it doesn’t show all data in the report, and it’s not expanded. So pretty useless.Of course, that’s maybe expected for pdf/htmlIs there a way to export that in csv in order to have all information?
Hi All. We are planning to deploy commvault marketplace image in Azure for backing up azure services. What could be the approximate license cost for backup azure services? Just need a approximate one.
I have a problem with IndexServer object for one storage policy. For some reason backup of Storage_Polixy_IndexServer started failing (its in running state and never completes). No events listed in the job window. Last synthetic backup failed for all clients for that policy and its probably because Index issue (not 100% sure). Is it possible to create a new one. I know that is created automatically when storage policy is created. Anyone had done that before?CommVault ver. 11.20.9Thanks.
