A customer I am working with is trying to upgrade their commvault environment to the latest release.Manage > System > Maintenance > Download or copy software > Download option > Upgrade to Latest Release: 11.36.35 > check the boxes for both windows and unix packages.This starts a download jobs which kicks off and takes about 15 minutes where is says 400+ files are downloaded and job says success. However, when they look at the contents of the software cache after the download job, it still only shows 11.34.44. If they try to update any of the servers it tells them that the servers are already up to date which is not true. All devices are currently running 11.34.44 but shows the latest release for download is 11.36.35. They have tried this download several times and can see the network traffic is downloading but the software cache never shows the newer versions.They committed the cache successfully, and have restarted Commvault Services in the CommServe, but keep runni
We have several hyperscale x clusters, has someone done the os migration from RHEL to Rocky? https://documentation.commvault.com/2024e/expert/migrating_hyperscale_x_version_on_existing_nodes.html What is your experiences with this?
What is your naming convention for Plans? Looking for some inspiration.
Is there a way to provide specific permissions/roles in Commvault which will automatically be revoke/expire after a certain period of time? Any assistance is appreciated in this query
the customer uses VMware “tagging” for multiple purposes. One of those purposes is to inform Commvault as to what VMs to back up and how to back those VMs up.
I have a Sharepoint Online client, that when browsing for a restore recently I saw that there was a lot of data simply not in the backups that is currently in Sharepoint.I am wondering if this is because previously the Plan was set to Received/Creation Time (this is no longer an option for Plans) of 30 days, rather than Deleted Time of 30 days. It was changed to Deleted Time in Feb. This is a client that was set up back in 2021, so a lot has changed in the CommandCenter. In the Console, if you go to Policies > Configuration Policies > Exchange Policies and open a Retention Policy you can still see the Retention Mode of Deletion Time or Received Time. Prior to the Plan Change, if an item was created, backed up, and then would be aged 30 days later. My theory is that these items that ‘aged’, did not get backed up when the plan was changed to Deletion Time.When changing a plan for M365 (Sharepoint Online in my case), does it apply retroactively to items (i.e. items that were backed
Does anyone have any information from Commvault regarding CommServe support for windows server 2025?I have tested it in our lab and it seems fine.
Friends, I would like to set the SQL Server Authentication on client level using REST. If I request the client info using `/client/:clientid`, I see within `clientProperties.pseudoClientInfo.idaInfo.sql61Prop` the override switch and the MSSQLCredentialinfo. I tried simply to get the client info, update what I want to update and post this back. The response is 0, but nothing is changed. Does someone knows how I can update this? Thanks in advance, Maurice
Hi,Does the Dataserver-IP feature require any special libraries, packages or customization on Red Hat 9.4? like here: I have 2 Media Agents and I want to share mount paths (LUNs mounted to each MA). But there are some errors eg. with Data Verification or backup:Cannot connect to Data Server, please make sure desination MediaAgent is up and running and there is no network / connvectivity issue between source and desination Media Agent.In NFSTtransport log:3dfs server @ [cv-ma-g02] failed to start, reason: Services/3dfs are not reachable or refusing connectionThere is no firewall between them, there are able to cummunicate, services are running but still problem exists. There is no NFS service installed on this server - should I install it?
