Hi @FroiV 

I don’t think there is a granular way to obtain the results you’re looking for, you will need to collect the response and then programmatically inspect the results to filter on only the desired clients.

You can use GET /Client/VMPseudoClient to return a list of those pseudo clients, if you can narrow down the results to the expected types, this will help identify the clients you’re looking for.

For example, if you know you’re looking for a VMware client, this will be found in the results with VSInstanceType=1.

clientName and clientId are also returned in the response, so you can use these to perform either:

GET /Subclient?clientId={clientId}

GET /Subclient?clientName={clientName}

Get Client Properties also has a response item IsVirtualClient=true/false

GET /Client/{clientId}

Get Client Properties

For FileSystem, you could use GET Subclient Properties and check the response for:

GET /Subclient/{subcilentId}

applicationId=33

enableBackup=true

GET Subclient Properties

Thanks,

Stuart

Just to add to the great detail provided by Stuart….

I’m not sure of the level of detail you need but you can get reasonable details for all Subclients of an app type under FR24 using  clientId=0 in the following with PropertyLevel=20. Adjust the applicationID to suit

GET /Subclient?clientId=0&applicationId=106&PropertyLevel=20&includeVMPseudoSubclients=false

Does that provide the level of information you need or is it something more/less than that?

Thank you for your answers, @Stuart Painter @bish . I’m very new to scripting and these are helpful to me.

However, one of the issue I had is when I also browse for a client that had their licenses reclaimed from Commvault, I can still extract them on the GetClient command. These are for FS backups. 

Any suggestions would be helpful? thanks! 

@FroiV , are you trying to filter out the deconfigured clients from your output?

@bish might be able to advise, depe3ndoing on your end goal.

If it’s a case of easily seeing what File Servers are configured, FR25 provides additional APIs aka /v4/ which returns a response that includes a “configured” value.

GET /v4/FileServers?additionalProperties=true

(Note, you do not need additionalProperties=true for the “Configured” value. Left it there as it might be useful to you for further info)

e.g.

{

  "fileServerCount": 13,

  "fileServers": i

    {

      "id": 2,

      "name": "v11srv",

      "displayName": "v11srv",

      "GUID": "644DB626-9762-4472-AD4F-B6A5367C0B0D",

      "configured": true,

      "type": "WINDOWS",

      "lastBackup": {

        "jobId": 376921,

        "status": "COMPLETED",

        "time": 1635195614,

        "lastSuccessfulBackup": 1634716815

      },

      "applicationSize": 55941392381,

      "plan": {

        "id": 0,

        "name": ""

      },

      "SLA": {

        "status": "MISSED_SLA",

        "reason": "No Schedule"

      },

      "status": "ONLINE",

There are also other /v4 APIs in FR25 which might be useful to you for information. Just calling them out in case they are ;)

GET /v4/VirtualMachines

GET /v4/Hypervisor

GET /v4/Databases

Hope that helps in some way.

@bish thank you for this. just to clarify, what does FR25 means? I tried running this script and this is what I’ve got

cv_url is = http://apac-commserve.int.asurion.com:81/SearchSvc/CVWebService.svc/

Sorry, FR25 - Feature Release 25 for v11 

https://documentation.commvault.com/11.25/essential/134958_feature_release_1125.html

Do we have anything specific for SP20? we can’t upgrade the SP to 25 at the moment. 

I’ll check and come back to you.
