Hello,
I have about ten virtual machines (windows machines), I have to set up virtualization (VMware) on Comcell. Could you send some links related to virtualization setup on Commvault server?
Best regards,

VMware virtualization - how to setup
Hi
To backup the VM’s you’ll need a machine with the “VirtualServer” Agent installed. - This machine is leveraged to connect to vCenter (Port 443) and ESX (Port 443/902) to request Snapshot Operations and Backup related operations (Disk lease, Mapping, CBT etc).
If you want to use SAN Transport you’ll need a Physical machine, otherwise this machine could be virtual.
The Agent can be loaded onto an existing machine (such as Media Agent) or be dedicated depending on your requirements here.
VSA Proxy Requirements can be found here: https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/3368_system_requirements_for_virtual_server_agent_with_vmware.html
Here’s the setup instructions for configuring VMware Backups:
From the Web UI Command Center: https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/essential/119380_guided_setup_for_vmware.html
From the Java UI CommCell Console: https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/32164_basic_setup_for_vmware_backup_and_recovery.html
Best Regards,

Hello,
One more information, VSA proxy is for VMware virtualization.
Do I need to install File Recovery Enabler for Linux FREL if I will only have windows virtual machines on VMware virtualization?
Best regards,
Elizabeta
If there are no Linux clients, no need for FREL.
