Currently, I'm using Commvault V11 SP16. I'd like to know if I can enable the Immutable feature with this version.Does the team have a compatibility document for Commvault versions and their features?

Hi folks, We are trying to set up a new commvault platform version 11.36.6 under Rocky Linux release 9.1 (Blue Onyx). No error reported during the installation.But when we tried to access the CommandCenter, below the interface that is shown from the WebBrowser : After reviewing services status, we found that both WebServerCore and MongoDB are down : From cvlaunchd.log we can see :19647 4cbf 08/27 12:11:44 ### checkServices() - WebServerCore is not running. Bring it up!19647 4cbf 08/27 12:11:44 ### checkServices() - MongoDB is not running. Bring it up! Trying to bring them up did not work as well. Any idea why services are not working ?Kind regards.

Hello, new install here, needed to make a change on a Cloud Storage (HPE StoreOnce), and needed to recreate the catalyst store. I’ve deleted everything, but now from command center (11.34) I says when recreating the CLOUD Storage is already created. the commvault documentation only refers to commcell operation, but this is strange because commcell is not available on 11.34 https://documentation.commvault.com/2024/expert/deleting_backup_or_archive_storage_policy.html ERRO: Failed to create the Storage Policy [NAME_OF_STORAGE_POLICY]. A Storage Policy with the same name already exists any help will be much appreciated regards

We have the Only Backup Files created or modified on and after option setup for a few servers.  One of our servers is very large video images from our camera system.  It takes up a large amount of our CV Capacity license.  After 90 days we no longer care about files older than that.  I have the Only Backup Files setting set to 90 days from the current date.  The problem is I would need to go in and change that every day to stop it from backing up those older files.  I understand that its not really backing them up however it does count towards our capacity which is very high and we are trying to trim the fat.  My question is can I somehow set that to a date that is always 90 days from the current date when it goes to back up that server each night, or do I have to go in every day and update that date manually?  Thanks for any help.

Hi All, i have an bad point… I know lic reporting is not easy. I had the following situation. We are using Commvault Backup and Recovery by capacity for vsa and database.  We had an lic used growth from +4tb during the last 24 hours. Yesterday we had 49Tb from 50Tb used and today we are using 53Tb and of course the customer is know asking what happend here.  For me its very dificult to find out what happend here. I checked the bigges vsa player from full to full if there is any increase but i found nothing also the biggest db server from full to full but also nothing.  I send every 14 Day an lic zum report but there i only can see wich typ of application is using how much from the capacity lic So what can i do ? 

When will Platform Release 2024E 36.10 be availible in the Commvault Console ?

Has anyone seeing this case where when running a backup copy, VMs are mounted, but some of them end up “invalid” this failing backup copy and hanging around vsphere. We have to manually right click and select “Remove from Inventory then run another backup which then works fine.VMTools running latest version.Run a full on the affected VMs and it keeps happening.Had a ticket with CV which said that this is a VM issue, so wondering if the community has seen this before and have found a solution for it? Thanks

I rebooted two media agents in my environment and after that, I have DDB verification jobs failing. The error points to mount paths not accessible but all mount paths are online and ready. There are no network blocks. The connectivity between CV and the storage pool is up. The media agents can communicate with CommVault. Backup jobs are running with no issues. Only the DDB verification jobs are failing. The media agents involved are the ones I rebooted

Hey Guys!We have a few tapes with only a small amount of data. So we want to do a Media Refresh. But the Library has only one drive, so Media Refresh wouldn’t work?Re-Copy could be another solution, but jobs from the source are already deleted and existing only on the Tapes with longer retention.So I’m sitting here and scratching my head what we can/should do with those 5 Tapes with only a small amount data, because we need scratch tapes, so thats why we want to copy them together just to one Tape.KRJan

If we back up a new server one time and let's say it is 15 TB. We then release the license for said server, how long does it take for that for that 15 TB to return to the license? Is it based of the data aging jobs that run, or is there a certain number of cycles Commvault goes through to make sure the 15 TB is never going to come back?

Hello ALL,I am reaching out to seek clarification regarding the visibility of tape labels in the restore job logs. Recently, we restored critical data from tape storage, but during my audit review, I noticed that the tape label was not visible in the restore job log.Could you please advise on where we can locate the tape name or label in the restore log? Any guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Hello Commvault Community, Is it possible to limit the number of sessions for virtualization backup (VMware) using a key or setting that will limit backup sessions per cluster, per host or per datastore within one large subclient? Such a need arose because in a scenario where a failure occurs on the hypervisor side and backups are launched from schedules, most/all jobs at once on development and production resources would fight for sessions (resources) at the same time, which will be problematic - limiting on the vCenter side may be inefficient. If it were possible to set something at the backupset or subclient level, it would also be good, because currently it is set so that practically every subclient is divided per cluster, which is inefficient at the moment and poorly manageable.Thanks in advance,Kamil

Hi All,One small query, generally during VM based backup, commvault creates disk snapshot in azure - OS disk snapshot.Is it possible to create VM directly from the Azure portal using commvault created OS disk snapshot - likecreating disk from that commvault snapshot and build VM using the new created disk.is this approach feasible, or can it be restored using commvault tool only.
