Hello Commvault Community,My name is Kamil.I need your help with Kubernetes. The client configured backups on the Kubernetes cluster, unfortunately, when an attempt is made to backup the components to which PVC is attached, an auxiliary container is created, whose task is to copy data from persistent volume. Unfortunately, the Pod is created automatically by Commvault, along with the image's path.In the case of Client configuration, they do not have posted traffic to official docker repositories, therefore Pods hang in the ImagePullBackoff state. They've already tested manually changing the address of a broken Pod's image to the same image in their private docker registry, which was successful. The client sent an example of the configuration they use.“For example, for Poda rabbitmq-0 with pvc attached, it was created Pod/ data-xyz-cv-1816940. In Pod configuration:spec:containers:- command:- / bin / sh- -c- tail -f / dev / nullimage: debian: stretch-slim” I am asking you for help on ho

My question is about Parameter sORARUNBKPONDBROLE.The documentation is not clear to me.I do not understand how commvault decides whether a backup is a log backupif I want to use the parameter sORARUNBKPONDBROLE to run my log backups, e.g. at standby site. Is the final rman script parsed for archivelog or Is the name of the subclient parsed for archivelog or ...
Doing some preparation of our DR environment and wondering, if we intend to only do restores in the DR environment, is SSD still a requirement? My thoughts were the performance is required to do signature lookups (for writes), but for restores this would not be required. Thanks!
after upgrading from v11.22.17 to Maintennce Release v11.22.22 all our SyFull Schedule Policies (with Option “run Incr Backup before SyFull) stay in waiting Status after finishing the Pre-Incremental-Job.Suspending or Killing the Jobs is not possible. Only Cycling the Commserver-Services is helping. After Cycling the CS Services, the SyFull Jobs change to running State and the Jobs will be finished successfully.Anybody else having this Problems after installing MR v11.22.22?Regards, Alex
Hi Guys, I finally found the exact article that describes a solution I wanted to implement and am seeking opinions to do this or not. Basically I want to create multiple Selective Copies under a storage policy and associate with different subclients/computers to meet a client’s tiering model and different retention. Because I also want to implement Deduplication between the Primary and each selective copy, Weekly and Monthly, I’m weighing an option to Create Selective Copy using a Library instead of using a Storage Pool. In the article below;Article: https://documentation.commvault.com/commvault/v11/article?p=119730.htmStep 17b, can I select Partition Path as a normal Windows folder e.g. D:\<randomFolder>. If I create additional selective copies under the same storage policy, can I use the same D:\randomFolder> to deduplicate data between Primary Copy and additional selective copies or I have to create a D:\<randomFolder1> and so forth for each copy. I ask because I do n
Hi, We are setting up a new Windows MA with new DD-Engine and a new DiskLib. The DDB disk has been configured with recommended 32k block size and the DiskLib volumes with 64k block size. We have run a new DASH Copy in the SP to create a new dedup baseline from the previous backed up data. And the plan is to make this DASH Copy the new Primary once all data is available. A standard re-baseline operation, that usually get better dedup ratio with an updated DD-Engine. The backup data is mostly Hyper-V vm’s. In this case the Data Written in the old copy was 9TB and the Copy stopped att 18TB in the new MA as it ran out of resources - DiskLib Full. This was unexpected. Now we are thinking about doing Move DDB and MountPath but if there is a general Deduplication degration we are not sure if this will work, and if we will run into the same issues again. Does anyone have a similar experience or knowledge about this issue and a recommendation on how to move forward?I have done both new baseline
Hi guys, I have storage policy SP_A that run daily monday-saturday incremental and sunday FULL.I have a secondary copy in this SP_A that run a scheduled at MONDAY 23h a selective copy of a full weekly backup.I wonder if I can get this behaviour: the same auxiliary copy of a secondary copy with the last full backup of week but that runs just after primary copy finishes.Is it possible get this?
I am looking for a documents that we can setup storage policy to backup data to tape on a scheduled basis like tape#1 for week1 of the month, tape#2 for week2 of the month etc.. in round robin scenario from 1 backup job only Thank you
You may have heard or saw news that Microsoft will be deprecating Internet Explorer 11 to work with M365 apps and services on August 17th 2021, and full deprecation is slated to occur in 2022, due to the changes in web standards and availability of modernized IE/Edge browser. With this announcement we have decided to also deprecate support for Internet Explorer 11, and focus development/testing efforts on modernized browsers that take advantage of and accelerate many of the technologies that go into our Commvault Command Center. Leveraging Internet Explorer 11 in FR24+ may provide a degraded experience, so we recommend modern versions of Edge, Chrome, Firefox, and Safari when accessing Commvault Command Center and web console. As we continue to evolve Commvault Command Center and pack it full of technology to enhance the user experience, speed, and load times, leveraging the recommended modern browsers will ensure the best possible experience. You can always find a list of suppor

I have a Physical server running server 2016 and got the question to restore that server to a earlier state. Does anyone know how that is done in Commvault ?The server has full system and data backups. I know how to do VM restores but restoring a physical machine was never done.The restore should be done on the same physical server. Is this even possible ?
Good afternoon everyone,As it says in the title, my problem is that when creating an index server to configure online Exchange backups, I assign a client with Index Store installed, but when accepting it remains loading for a long time to finish skipping an error for the 20000 that seems not to be working, it is a laboratory that I have set up so the Windows Firewall I have it disabled and I do not know well what this problem may be due to.Possible solutions? I am beginning to despair as I do not stop testing but nothing.Greetings and thank you very much in advance.

We are trying to move a mount path to a new media agent, but it’s failing ever since we stopped the job. The disk became full resulting the data migration job being stuck for weeks, so we stopped the job and freed up space. However, every time we try to restart the mount path move it fails.We did the following to troubleshoot:Run disk defragmentation Verify disk and mouth path are online Validate mouth path Verify no disk maintenance task is running General sanity checks The error that we get is:Move Mount Path Job Failed, Reason : The mount path is under maintenance and hence cannot proceed with the move operation. Source: <MediaAgentName>, Process: LibraryOperation Can anyone tell how to fix this error? How do we get Commvault to see that the disk is not in maintenance mode?

Hello, guys.I currently have a client who is running on Redhat Linux Enterprise 8.3 and currently running agent 11sp17 and they seem not to be compatible.

Hello,I would like to retrieve all Domains and Organisation External groups using the qCommands.I tried to do it using the following procedure but I can only retrieve the CommCell User Groups and not the external one:https://documentation.commvault.com/commvault/v11/article?p=8261_1.htm Do you think it is possible to retrieve the configured external groups using qCommands or it is possible only using the API request “/UsersAndGroups” ? Thank you in advance for your answer. Regards,John
