As we have shared throughout the last year, Microsoft is retiring Exchange Web Services (EWS) for Exchange Online in two phases, with the first milestone commencing October 1, 2026. This thread captures key dates, transition paths, resources, and recommended configuration steps to take in your Commvault and Azure environments to help reduce the risk of interruption to supported Exchange Online protection. As you review your environments and take steps to migrate to Graph, we know questions will arise. Put your questions here and our technical experts will review and respond regularly. Note this transition impacts anyone backing up Exchange Online, inclusive of Commvault SaaS and on-prem software. It does not impact Exchange On-Prem users. Microsoft and Commvault feature support, dates, permissions, and transition behavior may evolve further. SummaryThis short video overview from our Readiverse Academy team summarizes key phases, dates, and critical steps to take in your environments.

Commvault PresentersBiswanath Das – Senior Technical Trainer Prasad Nara – Senior Manager of Development Webinar Recap As organizations continue moving workloads and data to the cloud, backup environments are growing in scale and complexity. The Storage Accelerator Tech Talk discusses challenges with traditional backup architectures, where MediaAgents act as the data mover between clients and cloud storage. This dependency on MediaAgents can create bottlenecks, increase resource utilization, extend backup and recovery windows, and add operational overhead as environments scale. The Tech Talk focuses on how Storage Accelerator changes the data path by allowing clients to write data directly to a configured cloud storage pool rather than sending backup traffic through a MediaAgent for data transfer operations. The MediaAgent remains active for metadata-related functions such as indexing and deduplication, but the client acts as the data

Web Console Deprecation – What Customers Need to Know Commvault is continuing its move toward a single, modern management experience through the Command Center. As part of this transition, the legacy Web Console has been officially deprecated and is no longer included by default in newer Commvault platform releases. This article explains what the deprecation means for you, when the Web Console may still be required, and how to request access if your environment depends on it. Why is the Web Console being deprecated? The Web Console is being retired as Commvault standardizes on the Command Center as its primary management and reporting interface. The Command Center provides equivalent or enhanced capabilities, improved security alignment, and is the strategic platform for all future feature development. Deprecation timeline • Version 11.38: Web Console interface marked as deprecated • Version 11.40: Web Console removed from the default installation media • Version 11.42 and later: Web
We’re pleased to share an important update to the Commvault documentation portal for Innovation release 11.42: a redesigned left-hand navigation panel that is now aligned with the structure of the Commvault Command Center interface.What’s ChangingIn the past, the organization of our documentation differed from the navigation experience within the product. This sometimes made it harder to move between the Command Center and supporting documentation.With this update, the documentation structure now mirrors the layout and logic of the Command Center. This creates a more intuitive and consistent experience when navigating between the product and its documentation.What This Means for YouEasier navigation between the Command Center and documentation Faster access to relevant information A more streamlined and consistent user experienceThis change is designed to help you find answers more quickly and reduce friction when using documentation alongside the product.We Value Your FeedbackAs you e

Have you ever meticulously restored an Azure SQL database from a .bacpac file, checked the job status, and breathed a sigh of relief when you saw "Success," only to be met with a wave of authentication failures and reports of orphaned users? It's a confusing and frustrating scenario. The portal says the operation was successful, the database is online, but your SQL logins and contained users are completely broken.This isn't a random glitch or a failed job that was misreported. It's a common situation that stems from the fundamental design of how Azure SQL Database handles users and logins during a .bacpac import. This article will demystify this behavior, explaining why it happens, why it's not a bug, and how a different authentication method sidesteps the problem entirely.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------1. Takeaway 1: The "Successful" Restore That Secretly Breaks Your SQL LoginsThe core of the problem is this: even when an Azure SQL Dat

Hello Team,We have recently upgraded Commvault to Feature Release 11.44.25. Following the upgrade, we have observed few issues with the new version.One of the issues identified is related to VM Group Plan assigningIssue Description:When we create a new VM Group under vCenter and assign a Plan, the configuration is saved successfully. However, the assigned Plan is not reflected correctly in the CommCell. Instead, the Commvault Console automatically associates a different policy and storage pool with the VM Group.Even if we try to change the correct policy from Console, it will not get changed. Under normal circumstances, the policy and storage pool should be assigned based on the configured Region and Plan.Could you please investigate this behavior and confirm whether this is a known issue in Feature Release 11.44.25? Please also advise if there is any available hotfix or workaround to resolve the issue.We would appreciate your assistance in identifying the root cause and resolving this
I am looking for some advice and best practices regarding an upcoming migration project. We are planning to transition from our current HyperScale setup to a traditional architecture, and I am specifically looking for the most cost-effective way to achieve this by reusing our existing hardware.Current Environment: HyperScale 1.5 (3 nodes in the Main site) HyperScale 1.5 (3 nodes in the DR site) External CommServe running as a VM Target Environment: Migration from HS 1.5 to a traditional backup architecture HPE StoreOnce acting as the backup repository My Questions: What is the recommended migration path or procedure to move our data and operations from the HS 1.5 clusters to the new traditional setup? Is there a supported and optimal way to wipe/reimage the existing HyperScale nodes so they can be repurposed as standard MediaAgents for the StoreOnce repository? We want to avoid purchasing new hardware for the MAs if possible. Any insights, technical caveats, or documentation li
Hi Team, i tried to do some reseach but can not find any explenation what the Microsoft 365 - Exchange Online - Stats Status do or what they reflect. Sometimes the Stats status is up to two days in the past
Hey All, I`m looking to see if a member of the commvault team / or community has noticed changes with their storage policies when upgrading from 11.36 to 11.40.The "Global_..." were created after the upgrade and I cant fully understand the reason. Has anyone seen anything similar to this before? Another behavior I noticed is around non dedup copies like snapshot copies. Within 11.36 during the Snap Copy creation, you could simple point to a media agent and create the copy, but since the 11.40 you must select a storage pool. Not quite sure the thought behind this, I can create a non dedup pool and create the copy but Im really just trying to understand the logic and why do we need so many pools.Similarly, all my current snapshot copies were Auto Associated to these Global copies from the screenshot. Is there a documentation stating the creation of these "Global" policies when upgrading to FR11.40?Thank you in advance.
Hello! Could you please answer the following question. For the cloud storage Commvault has published list of S3-Compatible Object Storage Vendors: https://documentation.commvault.com/11.40/software/supported_s3_compatible_object_storage_vendors.html How do you think are there any risks to use some S3 vendors not mentioned in the list? May be technical issues? Or we will lose support? For example, Leviia (https://www.leviia.com/en/object-storage/) states that it is “Compatible with the S3 API and major tools like Veeam, Acronis, Bacula, Commvault, Atempo, Cyberduck, QNAP, Synology, and more. But it is not in the Commvault supported vendor list. Please share your opinion. Thank you in advance!
