Hi Team,I am looking for a Query/Script that can be used to fetch the information about all the service accounts that are used in Commcell Environment.Eg: to store DR backups in a Network share/ account used to add the mountpath(provisioned from NAS/SAN) in a media agent etc.These service accounts are not coming from AD and hence are not listed in the Users or Users and User groups. Hence, they cannot be found in the Users and Users groups permissions report from webconsole.Also, these service accounts cannot be obtained from “UMUser” table in CSDB.Is there a way we can obtain this information from CSDB?I have a support ticket 210524-114 opened for this request.Regards,Shashwat

All,I am currently implementing Hyper-V 2012 with Intellisnap for CommVault V11 with Netapp array.There isn't much information/best practices on how it could be done. I have done a bit of research andcame up with ODX on Hyper-V 2012. Apparently it causes a lot of headaches. Also there are also instances where AVHDX files are not removed after a backup is doneI would like to ask:1. Is it worth disabling ODX feature to ensure stability for Intellisnap backup or should I leave it enabled2. Are there any hotfixes which needs to be applied to the Hyper-V 2012 server to ensure that it works and stable3. Do I need to install the Data Ontap VSS provider or will the Commvault hardware VSS provider be sufficient?4. What are the ways to avoid having those remnant AVHDX files even after the backup completes5. Any additional settings within CommVault to implement to ensure that the CommVault Hyper-V intellisnap backup works?6. Will be using crash consistent backup option for Intellisnap, sh

Hello everyone,I have a situation that I couldn't find in the documentation and in community here in how this could be done properly.We have a attached disk as DAS in the Media Agent and we have the need to move all the backups of the VMs to another place which will be a Cloud Storage.Is it possible to move all the backup data and after this change the subclients to this new Storage that we need as well?(Sorry for my bad english, btw ).
Newbie Alert! Hello Everyone I am new to Commvault I took over an environment which has more than 200 storage policies. These policies were created as a result of plans created using command center. We have more than 2000 VMs and 200+ filesystem clients and Databases. I was wondering how should I approach the cleanup. Is it a good idea to use plans for larger environments, because as a result of single plan there are multiple configurations created automatically. Thank You
The Tape Storage Matrix is getting quite “interesting” over time. I am not sure why there are still references to outdated unsupported OS’s and architectures, but that’s more of an comment than a question. I’m trying to verify whether a drive is on the matrix and not coming up with anything. Under the filter section there’s no windows OS. Hmm. If I search for T50e, Windows 2008R2 is the newest “supported” OS for it? What? Is this to say if I call in a ticket for a newer OS on that autoloader might support tell me “sorry Charlie”? Latest code for that unit is BlueScale12.7.07.03-20180817F, it’s not in the Matrix at all. Not sure how to take this or not. Anyone have a similar situation. Plenty of life left in these units and still fully supported by Spectra. Will LTO-8 work?thanks
Hello, In Commvault 11.20 Commcell I have a number of hosts that have user files and folders located on OneDrive attached as a contents of drive C:. As a result of backup job I face the following messages [C:\Users\user1\dir1\subdir1\file1.pptx] [0x18B 395] Access to the cloud file is denied.[C:\Users\user1\dir1\subdir2\file2.pptx] [0x18B 395] Access to the cloud file is denied.etc. Is there an elegant way to filter these OneDrive content out?
Is there a known documented process to migrate Commcell’s to a dedicated private metric server? Currently the metrics server sits on a CS and the Comcell env is growing rapidly.I was tasked with creating a plan of action and any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!
