Hi all,I am trying to configure two physical RHEL servers that are not domain-joined. I need to back these servers up and need to install the agent first. Considering all firewall rules are in place, which would be the best way to install the file system agent and then configure for backups.Would a decoupled install work just fine? Installing the agent locally on the client server, then adding the client fetching “the configuration information from the client that is already installed in decoupled mode.”I am having a hard time finding documentation with a case like this. All I am trying to figure out is how to get the Commserve to reach the servers once the agents are installed. Once the Commserve can talk to the clients I am able to configure the rest.I was wondering if this is even possible. Usually, I deal with servers that are domain-joined.Thanks in advance! 

Hi All, we are looking for an solution to backup an 7TB big SQL Server and restore the hole instance in 2h this is the customer wish.  I think the normal streaming backup is not working for this part. Maybe when the mediaagent has an all flash maglib behind and the network is 50GB and the sql server vm is also running on an nvme enviroment.  So we are thinking what can we do to backup the DBs and get an quick restore.  One Point ist the intelli snap for nutanix. Our idear is to run ever 4h an intellisnap for nutanix backup and copy it out to cv. Also we would like to install an sql cv agent inside of the vm run daily full + daily diff + every 15 minuts trans logs but no my question regarding the way back.  Lets say we have now 10:00 may last vm snap was at 06:00 and my logs are running every 15 min no i do an revert of the snap to 06:00 is it possible to restore over the commvault agent only the logs to 10:00 ? We want to prevent that the agent is restoreing the hole stuff from full +

i configured an NDMP backup with 10 readers , i have dedicated ma with enough resources to accommodate  it , i split the content to several sub clients , as you can see in the below pic , there only one active streams never completing , how can i reuse the comeplted stream to do the job and finish it  

Hi!According to docshttps://documentation.commvault.com/2024e/expert/sap_maxdb_agent_system_requirements_03.html SAP MaxDB backup agent is not currently supported on Windows 2022, but SAP MaxDB itself is supported on Windows 2022. Are there any plans in Commvault to support backup of MaxDB on Windows 2022 platform? Or is it already supported but docs just haven’t been updated yet?It would be great if any vaulter could check that for me.Thanks!

Hello,Can Commvault automatically detect orphaned snapshots and perform their consolidation automatically without user intervention?Regards,Lubos

I have MSSQL database server. Where databases are periodically added and deleted. How can I set a backup of certain databases by mask. For example, a backup of only those databases that begin with the letter A.Initially selecting databases for backup is not suitable. It is necessary that databases that match the mask are automatically included in the backup job when they appear on the server.

i am trying to configure intellisnap , storage array is powermax 8000 , and my media agents are hyperscale x nodes , having access to storage via fiber (SAN mode) i was going thru below requirements , if anyone can clarify doubts https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/system_requirements_for_dell_emc_powermax_vmax3_vmax_symmetrix_storage_array.html1> Solutions Enabler Licensing and BASE/Symmetrix license for all snapshot types - where is this referring , for the storage array or on media agent2> LUN masking records and views must be accessible from the host where the backup takes place. what is the host referring here ? 3> what is client and proxy computer , remote MA referring here , since we are using Hyperscale x nodes we are not planning to install solution enbaler on that, we already have solution enabler installed in one mahine can we use that , or do we need to install any package on itwhat is the best practise in my scnario ,  powermax with hyperscale x nodes

I deployed the workflow "RestoreRequestAuthorization" and configured it for some client groups and a user group to be the approvers. All worked good.Now I want to configure another workflow to be able to configure another user group to approve requests for another client group(s) as my customer has different teams for different backup agents.When I deployed the cloned workflow I received an error message saying “message already configured for business logic workflow”. I found the conflicting message and gave it another name and was able to deploy the cloned workflow successfully.When I configured the cloned workflow with other client groups it didn’t work and the restore jobs didn’t trigger any requests for approvals!Wondering if anyone went through similar issue before?Thanks in advance!

Hi all,We want to change the OS of our MediaAgent from Windows to RHEL for securtiy reason.Windows MA has network shared disk library, DDB and Index are in local drives.If it is possible, please provide any documentation of what are the requirements and procedure.Thank you.

Hello,we installed a v11.36 in a POC. Customer has circular logging in Exchange active. We do not use the Java GUI, and now we are looking for the advanced backup option “Convert job to full for databases that have circular logging enabled” in Command Center. We didn’t find it, but I may not be firm enough with Command Center for that ….Regards, Thomas

Hi,We are trying to configure postgre backup for linux cluster which host postgre sql.https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/configuring_cluster_group_clients_for_non_veritas_clusters_unix.html’ What does shared cluster filesystem means ? Do it means which active/active or active/passive?In the Job Results Directory box, type the path for the job results directory. Ensure that the directory resides on a shared cluster file system. What about jobresults directory ,how this resource need to be configured in cluster?How the dependency of jobresults with other resources need to be defined ? What does moved filesystem means ? Unmount any moved file system because of the failover  Please help to answer these queries.

In Exchange Online backups there is a job that runs daily called a “live update”. This job is small in size (only a few KB) but it attempts to write to the library directly from the Index Server associated with the Exchange Online Client.In my environment the Cloud Storage library is restricted to specific VNET’s for security. This VNET contains the Access Nodes and MediaAgents as we use Cloud Storage Accelerator to process the backups.When the VNET restriction is in place this job fails as the Index Server which is not in the same VNET is unable to access the cloud library. If I remove the VNET restriction on the storage account the job runs without error.Is there a way to find out where this job is initiated from so it can be massaged to write to storage via the MediaAgent rather than directly?

Hello Commvault Community,Do we have any news regarding HCL Domino 14 support for Linux? I saw in another thread on Community that for Windows it has already been confirmed, for Linux theoretically too, but the documentation still hasn't been updated - Customers are asking for it and however, entries in the documentation are important in view of the regulation of companies' internal policies. Is there any date when this information will be updated? Currently we have encountered a problem with the “Discovering Databases” process, but this is the first instance of HCL Domino 14 database in the environment and for previous versions this problem doesn’t exist - hence my concern whether we should continue to integrate with Commvault if this version of the database is not officially supported.Thanks in advance Kind RegardsKamil

Hello Guys.I have backed up a linux file then I did restore successfully. Both of  there is not any failure or skiping file. But there are 20000 missing file after restore. What clould be there ?backupRestore

Hi, im still trying to get the RPO settings right for the following scenario (we are currently on V 11.32.69): Incremental Backup Mo-Fr 09:00 PMTransaction for Database every 4hFull Backup of Databases every Day 09:00 PMFull Backup (of all) Saturday 09:00 PM (for Tape export) We have some flexability with the start time, but for the first try we started with the rule set above:The outcome was mixed, the SQL Backups all had some Jobs with an “Failed to start” Error, also some of the Job there startet as Differential (the SQL option to incr. Backup) for other its started the Full Job, depending what job was “faster” to start. Isn’t there some intelligence that priorities the “higher value” Backup Job (Full > Diff > Incr.)? I could manually move the Database Fulls a few minutes eralier, that would at least make sure, the Full would be ran and the Incr. would “Fail to start” but is there a way, i can get rid of attempt to start the job at all?In the RPO you can select “all Agent” and

Good Day everyone,we’re operating a remote location with a Windows-Server as a network-Gateway between Clients that have no connectivity to CS and Commserver. (Not the OVA)We proudly got our first unix SAPHana-Client operating in that remotelocation.We installed a lot of Windows-Clients so far in that remotelocation, which is why we we’re sure that our way would work with linux as well:- We installed the Client with the silent_setup which is available in the linux-package- After that we tried the following SIMcallwrapper: /opt/commvault/Base/SIMCallWrapper -optype 1000 -cshost commserveFQDN -clienthostname clientFQDN -Connectioninfo gatewayFQDN:8403 -user 'clientregister' -password 'password' -ClientGroup 'group that is configured to use proxy' however this does not work at all and we’re unfortunately unsure why:Successfully executed given operation.…SimCallWrapper failed.

Hello All,we have Mongo Sharded Configuration backup on COmmvault. We backup it daily full. As you know COmmvault take snapshot before backup and , It deletes snapshots after backup copy. When I check the client on Commvault there is not any snphot presented. But There are many snapshot taken by COmmvault on host. İs it fine if we delete them manuelly or how can we delete them? Commvault should delete them automaticly right? Snapshots on host: [gbmnsp08]~#lvsLV VG Attr LSize Pool Origin Data% Meta% Move Log Cpy%Sync Convertcvnv_1213025853 datavg swi-I-s--- 50.00g lv_data01 100.00cvnv_1615395985 datavg swi-I-s--- 50.00g lv_data01 100.00cvnv_2032137259 datavg swi-I-s--- 50.00g lv_data01 100.00cvnv_2251453908 datavg swi-I-s--- 50.00g lv_data01 100.00cvnv_2532432752 datavg swi-I-s--- 50.00g lv_data01 100.00cvnv_3191856748 datavg swi-I-s--- 50.00g lv_data01 100.00 

Hi CV Experts,  We are on 11.32.59.As per default schedule DDBVerf configured in our environment. It is selected as Quick verification.But in 11.32 documentation, it is mentioned default schedule to run with “verification of existing jobs on disk”. https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/verification_of_deduplicated_data.html Kindly note,we have 1PB of data, so running ‘verification of existing jobs on disk’ shows estimated time to complete as more than one month.Can we run default schedule with Quick verification.Does it identify the corruption or missing in chunks on storage ? https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/data_verification_of_deduplicated_data.html

how can i select a date of copy to be replicated while performing failover , considier i have retention set 14 days , i want to do a failover with 7th day data , i dont see any option to select the restore point 

we have vmware vms hosted on HPE Alletra 9000 storage. Small vms are backed up using snapshot of the vms . The storage policy uses a global dedupe storage pool, so the current backups are copied to Hyperscale 1.5 storage libraries. the local snapshots disappear when the job completes.I understand that intellisnap backups can use the snapshot ability of the allatra storage array. We currently use multiple linux based physical hyperscale nodes as mediaagents which already have the mediaagent and vsa software built in.I expect that separate commvault subclients have to be setup in vcenter > vmware for each datastore that we would like to use an intellisnap backup? We have the alletra arrays configured in array management with all the mediaagents as access nodesMy questions are:1) would  the sub clients would use the HPE 3par snap engine? instead of the vcenter2) Some datastores host several large vms, how can a subclient that points to that datastore process such a large alletra datast
