Hi Today I noticed a job running which I presume was initiated by CommCell which I have no accesses too Index Restore Commserve Management.  If anyone knows what this entails I would be much obliged.  We are running Metallic (Commvault Cloud ) Regards  Tony  

Hi,We’re running 11.32.73.The Tomcat version used have at least two vulnerabilities, CVE-2024-52316 and CVE-2024-38286.When checking the windows service it says it’s version 10.1.8. When checking the catalina.jar file it shows version 10.1.19.Still we need to get past 10.1.30 to fix CVE-2024-52316 which have the status Critical.When do you plan to update the Tomcat version?

So we started migrating vms from vmware cluster 1 with nutanix storage  to pure cluster 2 with purestorage, about 1000 vms: we have intellisnap on both. The diffrnece is we have 50 datastore in nutanix vs 10 on pure, we have configured the job one subclient per lun, the proxies were in nutanix platform but I migrated few to pure, although the controller proxy still in Nutanix, however we seem to be having issues during the first phase when cv proxy requests a vmware snapshot of the vms..it was working all fine however as per the patching process we keep the snapshot on some vms overnight.  My understanding was as long as the networking among proxies does not change atleast the first phase should go smoothly without any load issue irrespective of where the proxies are located either in nutanix or pure cluster...it appears the request to create a vmware snapshot taking too long..we are using the same set of proxies...

We have a standard patching process wherein we take a snapshot and leave the server running and then the snapshots are committed the next day just as a fail safe ; from what I understand this process should not be used to patch Commvault windows proxies as could have issues during the backup copy process (we use intellisnap; like hot-add)  

Dear Support Team, One of the my customer having 4 servers vmware ESXi host and its booting from SAN storage. Is there any option can we take entire ESXi host image backup and restore into new IBM storage. Regards,Mani D 

Hello Is it possible to disable the email users receive when failing to enter the 6 digit two-factor authentication code? To clarify when a user enters their login info they need to enter the 6 digit code after their password. Failing to do so will send an email to the user with a one time login code that is viable for 30minutes.I would like to disable this email being sent when failing to enter the authentication code upon login.Is this possible? 

Hello Team,I am new to commvault so need your help in understanding the restore steps for MS SQL database in AG.My requirement is to restore one of the production DB which is in AG to its UAT environment.

Im planning to upgrade our Commserver from Commvault v11.32 to v11.36.  I was reading the document and it says since v11.36 comes with SQL 2022 you need to manually uninstall the SQL ( which technically means uninstall everything including the Commvault modules etc ) and reinstall . Is there a more seamless and supported way on doing this?  Seems like Commvault has drop the ball in this process. Use to be able to keep existing version etc. 

Started the Exam but cant finish it, when i try to open cant able to retake it , sent mail to enablement but failing

How can I restore a SQL database without using a .bak file? When I attempt to restore the database to disk or to an out-of-place location, the restore process generates a .bak file. I'm not sure how to restore the database as a regular database file with its associated transaction logs. Documentation hasn't provided any clear guidance. Can anyone help? Thanks!

Hi,We’re about to start upgrading the agents on the client servers and I’m curious how others are handling this activity. Of the course the goal is to have a successful upgrade and don’t cause any disruption.For the overall approached we will be using this:Updating Commvault Software on a Server Grouphttps://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/essential/updating_commvault_software_on_server_group_01.htmlWe will be grouping our client servers into patch groups of 25 clients.Besides stopping the schedule policies and any running jobs what else should we be aware of? Also is anyone perhaps using a blackout window when performing the upgrades? It looks like you can add that to a server group but I’m not sure if it’ll work or not? It’s just to be 100% sure nothing will start while performing the upgrades.Last thing, we have some SAP HANA log backups that are being triggered from client side so they will not be stopped when the schedul

Hello,we have an issue with DDB verification job it shows the below error2964  22d0  09/08 11:02:46 676720 Verification failed with error [751][Library [HQ_DB_ExaLibrary], MediaAgent [AUBEGHQBKPEXGM3], Drive Pool [], MountPath[\\ip address\HQ_DB1\3DFVM3_09.04.2024_13.51]: Cannot impersonate user.

Backup type is for a VMware hypervisor. We created a plan that requires a weekly recovery point with extended retention in which it auto generated an SF schedule for every thursday at 02:18AM. The VM group was set to trigger its daily incremental everyday at 12:30AM in the same plan.We recently accidentally (no failures in the VM parent jobs) noticed that more than 10 out of the 30 VMs for the VM group had the last synthetic full of 12th December and then realized that even though the parent SF VM backup job was being triggered, the VMs were being automatically excluded or not triggering the corresponding child VM backup job as its incremental was still running at 02:18AM. We raised a case with support and we were informed that child VM jobs not being triggered due to an existing incremental running and with no errors shown in the parent VM backup job is not a bug and by design. I would just like to ask the forum if you guys are aware of this behaviour an

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

hi, i have a customer, which have a 470 mailboxes, but the licecnce is for 445. Now im running on the trial one, i need to swithc to production one.

Hi,I’m working on a new design which will consists of several ROBOs and 1 DC which will act as DRC for branch offices. Each ROBO should have local MediaAgent with primary copy and replicate to DRC as secondary copies. In this design I would like to Protect customer data against Ransomware using WORM Lock on Disk libraries.This will require DDB Sealing and periodic Full Jobs to be transferred to target DRC site which can be a lengthy process consuming a lot of resources. To mitigate that, I’ve been looking into DDB Priming feature which seems like a perfect solution for this issue.I run a simple test in my lab:Create a primary storage on MA1 Create a secondary storage on MA2 Run Full backup on client Run Aux copy, note the “Data Transferred on Network” Seal DDB on secondary target Enable DDB Priming on secondary target Run Full backup on client Run Aux copy, note the “Data Transferred on N

Hello, Anyone using Epic EHR Systems for backup cache DB??? Currently I am using FS agent with Intellisnap but I am curious what are the pros/cons of Epic EHR Systems

Hi Commvault Community,I’m having an issue restoring backups from a previously licensed machine. Here’s what happened: I removed the license from my client. Then I formatted the machine. I reinstalled the OS but assigned a different hostname. I installed the Commvault agent again. In the CommCell Console, the system now shows up as a new client, even though it's the same physical machine. My goal is to restore data that was backed up before the format. However, I’m unable to access the previous backups from the new client.As a workaround: I created a virtual machine that replicates the original configuration of the machine before the license was removed — same hostname, OS version, install path, etc. Still, I’m unable to access or restore the previous backup data, eve
