Hi Vaulters.I have a potential customer that will need to back up 10k Office 365 accounts to Azure. They want all the infra (CS, MA, Access and Index nodes) running on Azure. Are there different sizing parameters for the infra servers if these will be all Azure VMs?Thank you in advance! 

Hello vaulters.Can an existing CV user, with on-prem infra (CS, MA, VSA, storage) migrate their backup infra to Metallic?Thanks in advance!

Hi, We are currently in the process of making the Commvault environment more usable for customers. The administration of the individual systems in Commvault is to be managed via Active Directory. We include the AD groups in Commvault and create in Client Computer Groups per AD group a group with the name of the AD group. All systems from the VSA data backup pools are linked into the group. The main portal for the clients will be the WebUI. Now I have linked a VM from the VSA subclient to the group of an AD for this project and it looks like it could work. But currently I can only restore the last backup of a VM. For backups a few days ago, the "Restore" button is grayed out.Has anyone here already made experiences or perhaps a better suggestion, how this could be better implemented?RegardsThomas

Hi,Our Teams backup often completes with one or more errors. Investigation showed that these errors concerns other items then Files, Posts and Wikis, in other words items that are not supported for backup. Is there a possibility to mark a Teams job just as “Completed”, if only items are not backed up that are not supported for backup?Thanks!

Hi,a customer of us has reported some strange behaviour. A user forwarded an archived mail using the Outlook Plugin. The email was cut off in the middle of the text. Inside the text, there was “<20%”. Everything after “<20%” was removed. After changing the “<20%” to “< 20%” (added a space after the “<”), the whole text was included. Is this a known issue?  Regards Holger

What is confusing about this topic is that Commvault seem to be sending mixed messages regarding the topic of extended retention.From v10, the recommendation was to use separate selective storage policy copies (and therefore separate DDBs) for jobs with longer retention to avoid issues with the DDB size and performance. This was where that warning message in the Commvault Admin Console originated. This however leads to a massive increase in the amount of back-end storage consumed as you have a seperate baseline for each storage policy copy you create.However in recent documention, when describing how to configure Plans from the Commvault Command Center, the documentation specifically states that one should use extended retention rules to create a hierarchical retention scheme (e.g to retain month-end backup jobs for longer. see 

Hi,When I try to export a tape, I get a library inventory is in progress error I can't find a way to solve this problem, any ideas?  

Hi,I have a customer request where I have some trouble finding a solution. He would like to receive an alert via email as soon as a backup job is deleted (not the data on the clients itself, but the already backed up content) e.g. if an employee is going to leave and would like to harm the company or similar scenario. Is something like this possible without using any third party product? Regards Holger

Hi there, is it safe to limit the number of streams to be used in parallel for System Created DDB Verification schedule policy? I am asking because in our case this verification policy consumes 30 streams out of 30 streams. However, there is set up use maximum number of streams, why is 30 limit then?Secondly, I would like to discuss Data Verification Options. Which option do you use preferably? Would it be enough to use only Verification of Deduplication Database instead of Verification of existing jobs on disk and deduplication database?  

Hello, IHAC who has a NetApp eseries as their disk library. When MA1 writing to a lun fails, the lun needs to be mounted on another MA2 to restore the backups. What is a standard procedure in Commvault that could be used to open the same mount path from a different media agent. From the Commcell GUI one can only create a new mount path. The goal is to be able to restore the data protected to this LUN from a different MA.

Qcommand to get install directory on a client or mediaagent

Ver11 SP16 Is there a way to report on how much space an individual server(s) backup is consuming on disk. Optimally I would be able to run this report through out the entire environment (every server) Looking specifically for VSA backups?

Hi all,We have had a Commvault backup/archive solution for a few years now, Commcell server version11.20.46. Backups are running fine but the Commcell event viewer is showing a repetitive alert message “Commserve failed to process Enterprise Metrics Reporting Server scripts”.We’re not Commvault specialists and don’t really know what Enterprise Metrics Reporting Server is or if it’s something we even need. We’ve certainly never intentionally tried to set up any of the scripts mentioned. Can anyone shed any light on this message and any action required?Thanks, Neil

Hello,I have a Commvault environment where I have 3 VSAs installed and added to the Virtual Server instance to backup and restore my VMs in my virtualized environment. The backup and restore of the VMs works flawlessly except the backup of the VMs with VSA function which throws the following error: “Proxy virtual machine is unable to backup itself”How can I backup VMs with VSA function? I see that if of the 3 VSAs I have the same one fails.Could someone tell me how to do it?Thank you very much!
