(CV 11.40.47)We have several Exchange Online backups running for our customers, and each has their own little slice of heaven dedicated to them in our datacenter. They have their own dedicated access Nodes, so they are isolated from each other on our end.We're seeing Exchange Online backup performance is degrading across the board. Because the customers all have their own independent MS365 tenants, it would be strange if this was a Microsoft throttling issue hitting all of them at the same time, no?I am not seeing this performance hit on their Teams, SharePoint, or OneDrive backups.anyone else seeing degraded performance with Exchange?

Hi all,I have a problem with the functionality of the filters in the views in Jobs - Job history, when I want to filter by Start or End.When I use the condition "Relative" (1 day), the list of jobs is displayed.When I use the condition "Between" (yesterday-today), the error "Something went wrong" appears.When I use the condition "Older than" (anything), "No results found" appears.There is a similar problem when using the time condition in the view in Protect - Virtualization - Virtual machines.It behaves the same in 11.40 and 11.42.Am I doing something wrong? Or is this a known issue?Regards,Lubos

Hi,is it possible to create a report where i can see that my backups are consistent?In Nagios, we already check the jobs for success or failure.RegardsDennis

Hi team,  I have a trouble when i creating lab for hyperscale edge,When setup failed register with commserve and for question is do we need to first commserve separately from the appliance? Thanks

Hi,Has anyone experienced issues with the schedule for the ArchiveLog_standby subclient not running on schedule even though it is assigned to a Plan?From what we can see is that this behaviour occurs when database maintenance occurred. There are no failures logged, it just does not run.To resolve it you temporarily change the backup plan to something else and revert, which “enables” the backup again. Cheers. 

cvfwd.log from CS displays below message.ERROR: Client connection to ed*wb**** failed on ***t00*: Can't unambiguously route connection to ed*wb**** because there are multiple tunnels from different instances of CVFWD pretending to be ed*wb**** I have uninstalled the CV client and reinstalled but still no go. Not sure what else to check. Why system thinks that there are multiple tunnels? CS and MA running on Windows, and client is running on Linux.

We have a client sitting in a DMZ that can successfully connect to media agent 01. However, media agent 01 does not have a DDB. In the job logs we can see the scan phase for the job complete on MA01 but then it fails on the backup phase. We noticed in the logs an attempt to connect to the CVD service on media agent 02 which houses the DDB. The client does not have a path to MA02. In this situation, does commvault require the client to have comms to the DDB media agent MA02? I thought that MA01 would handle connecting to MA02 not the client. How does Commvault handle the data flow in this setup?  Thanks!

Hello, I am trying to test the Retrieve to Client (Restore) API following the document  Retrieve to Client (Restore) | Commvault®. I tested the API with both Postman and Golang, and both times I received an error in response. The error is pasted below."ClientInfo is not complete","errorCode":9517Please see the sample GoLang code below. I followed the example in the Commvault rest API docs, but I can't figure out what's missing here. package mainimport ( "crypto/tls" "fmt" "io/ioutil" "net/http" "strings")func main() { url := "https://hostname/commandcenter/api/retrieveToClient" method := "POST" payload := strings.NewReader(`{ "m

Hi Commvault Team,We are looking at migration scenario’s, where will be moving our Commserve and standby-commserve to another hosted environment (we are moving into AWS).I have observed that some of our SQL clients have been migrated into AWS by making us of what is referred to as an MGN agent.This agent is basically a replication agent, and it has been successfully replicating SQL databases.So this got me thinking - would this be suitable for a Commvault commserve migration, because at the end of the day it’s SQL-based, and the replication side of things could save a lot of time with the migration into AWS.Obviously, we need to keep an eye on supportability, but I just throught I would throw this scenario out there as it may be worth further discussion.So, if anyone has used a volume-based replication to assist with a Commserve migration, then it would be good to hear of your experience in doing so.

I have configured a Hadoop backup in Commvault. The scan phase completes successfully and files are being detected correctly.However, before the backup starts, the job fails with the following error:"Unable to get index server information for client [120]"Because of this, the backup never starts. I have waited for a long time, but no events or additional logs are being generated.Environment details:Hadoop client installed with required packagesMediaAgents are already configuredCommunication services appear to be running fineHas anyone faced this issue before? Any suggestions on what to check or how to resolve it would be really helpful.

Hello, Is it possible to obtain an evaluation copy of Commvault?We are a Commvault partner, and our Development Team is requesting a copy to build out our monitoring tools.Thanks,Charles Weeks

!-->Hello,I’m playing around backup Azure VMs to on-prem Commvault. I setup all Azure stuff: create application, assign custom roles etc. So next step is configure access node.I deployed Commvault Cloud BYOL Access Node VM as described here: https://documentation.commvault.com/11.40/software/deploying_commvault_cloud_access_node_from_azure_marketplace.html (selected 11.36 as there is no 11.40 version on Azure).In Azure I setup network rules to open incoming connections on 22 and 8400-8403 ports from my on-premise public IP. Checked network connectivity from Commserve (telnet) on this ports - it's ok.So according to documentation next step is register node by commvaultRegistration.sh script.Entered values:client name: whatever

Hi all. I’m planning to upgrade from 11.32 to 11.40/11.42.Many of my agents (Oracle, MSSQL, file) and virtual machines are old installations and are still running index version 1. What will happen when I upgrade to 11.40/11.42, will they continue to use index version 1 or will they be auto “upgraded” to index version 2, or is this still a manual process so I can upgrade the index when I find fit? Cheers-Anders

Background:We have Aux copies moving data to a second location, and from that location Tapes are written. We have 2 Media Agents there, each with 1 mount point to storage (and they share the mount points).  The mount points have gotten so large we cannot allocate more space to them (a Windows 256 TB limitation).We *could* just add more mount points to add more storage but we would like to just “delete the existing mount points” from Commvault, wipe the storage, and then rebuild the mount points so we have maybe 4-5 smaller mount points per server (say 75 TB each). Then we would Aux copy all the data back to that location (which would prob. take 4-7 days). Questions:If we were to do this, would there be any “gotchas” or things to consider (we have a global DDB on this secondary Aux copied location, and several on the primary location)? I assume its not as simple as “turn off aux copies, delete mount points, w

Commvault is incredibly powerful.But that power comes with complexity—and complexity is where mistakes creep in.I’ve worked in enough environments to see the same patterns repeat:Backups are “working”… until they aren’t Performance slowly degrades Restores become harder than they should beAnd most of the time, it’s not a product issue.It’s configuration.Here are 10 Commvault configuration mistakes I see all the time—and how to avoid them. 1. Building Everything Around a Single MediaAgentIt works at first.One MediaAgent. One place for everything. Simple.Until:Jobs stack up Throughput drops That one system becomes your bottleneckFix:Start with at least two MediaAgents and distribute workloads.If everything depends on one MediaAgent, you don’t have resilience—you have risk. 

Im planning to upgrade/convert my v11 Snapprotect Commvault environment to the generic Commvault.WHat are the steps on doing it?From what I know are the following differences1. OEM ID of snapprotect is different from usual Commvault software2. SNapprotect licence is also differentHow to convert this licence int a regular Commvault capacity base licence?How to convert such that a regular Commvault installer that is downloadable from the Commvault website can be use to upgrade to newer versions of Commvault?Any ideas, suggestions, recommendations?

Every time we install a Commvault patch it re-enables Arlie.  Commvault - stop trying to make Arlie happen.  It’s horrible, we want it disabled - it isn’t going to happen.I have disabled Arlie in our two CommServes after every update, and yet it re-enables itself and causes annoyances such as: 2373079<SUP>* </SUP><BR>(F) Workflow Management 04/25/2026 8:00:01 04/25/2026 8:05:02 0:05:01

I’ve got a new installation that’s just completed and am having an issue with the Health Report in the Dashboard.The Error I’m seeing states ‘Unable to load the data from the server’.I’ve checked all services, restarted Tomcat/IIS and the CVCloud DB are online.When you click on the Health Report it then loads an error that the ‘User does not have access to the page’.The user is part of the ‘master’ role with associated entities configured correctly. Any ideas where I could start troubleshooting from as the next step?  

Hi All, short question regardind the backup feature Optimize for table level restore for the sql idata agent.  Unless otherwise noted for a particular feature, block-level browse is not supported from backups to tape libraries or virtual tape libraries. If you want to perform a block-level restore by using a secondary copy on tape libraries or virtual tape libraries, move the copy to disk storage before performing the restore.  Performing a Block-Level Backup Operation on SQL Databases so what happend if we have this feature aktive and have tape as sync copy. Is it like guest files and folder restore for vmware that this is not possible but hole vm / db is possible ?  Or did we have to bring the backup jobs ba
