Hello,I need for a automation project get the last successful backup job of a subclient. I found last job of a client, but when we have SQL server with some instances the list of jobs are very long and exceed the limit 10000 as the list is not from newest to oldest, so I need all jobs to find the last JOB number. Any ID how I can get simply the last jobid of subclient?we have commcell with 11.20.55 running thanks for any help.regards Juergen
Hi! I was trying to create a script using python for VM and FS clients that are configured on our Commvault software.I’ve used several references (below is a sample) and used the sandbox APIhttps://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/essential/45898_rest_api_get_client_properties.html But, unfortunately, I can’t seem to find a more granular result. Like for example, I’ve used Get /Client/VMPseudoClient API, Get VMBrowse (but unable to find PseudoClientId and inventoryPath) ang Get ClientID (but I am also getting clients that were unlicensed already) but all operations does not give me the information I need. I need to get the VM subclients under active VSA Agent and also FS clients that are currently licensed and being backed up. Do you guys have any sample that I can refer to? Thanks a bunch!

What’s the proper way to inform Dev of a REST API call I’d like them to implement? Are CMRs the way to go, or is there a different channel? The reason I hope for a different channel is that my former TAM assured me Dev wants to know what REST API calls we want/need since they’re trying to wean us from calling SQL database tables directly, so I hope they’re showing their support for with with a specific way of asking. (If you’re wondering: I want ways to list subclients that, for example, are of a specific agent type. For that matter, I want a REST API call to show me the agent types in use in a CommCell. Both of these are in support of being to allow users to ask about backups of agent types they support.)
Hi All, Qscript in the link here started to fail randomly since yesterday for me..in both of our commcells..Could not understand why I have this issue, for fun sake I tried to copy paste from CV’s documentation, from -help section of qcommand - maybe after 5 months of succesfull everyday use somehow script decided for himself to mistype the command...lol - laughing through tears here when example in -help section in itself is faulty :) Same goes for API call, response code is ‘200’ - but in the response is one of CV generic resp codes, which is ‘2’. def get_commvault_clients(self): """This method returns all servers with backups in past 24 hours from DK1 and DK2 commcells""" job_history = [] for api in self.api_url: jobs_request = api["url"] + "ExecuteQCommand" jobs_response = requests.post( jobs_request, headers=api["headers"], timeout=3600, data="command=qoperation execscript -s
I had have read all CommVault documentation, made a lot of test/API requests as well, but I did not found way/module/API REST how to get information about Backup Job Attempts (only via reports)... I found curl -X GET "https://server/webconsole/api/Events?jobId=14285647" -H "accept: application/json", but all items are regarding Events Details. And I am still looking for any information about full backups attemps, can you advice me which PS module's part or API request is it ? regards,Juraj
Hi, Is it possible to bulk move tapes from one library to another? I know it’s possible to right click one tape at a time and select “Options → Move to Library” and then select the new library but it would be nice to be able to do this with more than one tape a time.The reason for this is that we would like to decom an old tape library that we are not using anymore - we have bought a smaller library with just one tape drive so we can restore from all of the tapes used in the old library - but if I de-configure the old library all the tapes will be put in to “Orphaned Media” it would be nice to just have them moved to the new library before de-configuring the old.Maybe it’s just for cosmetics as I guess we can still import a tape (to the new library) that has been moved to “Orphaned Media” and restore the content from it?
I’m using this example PS command from https://api.commvault.com/#432b936c-631e-da74-0678-5626f95dc944 to retrieve QSDK token I’m getting this error
We're running Commserver 11.22.9.I have a couple of quick question regarding the Restore-CVSQLDatabase PowerShell module.The command I'm testing is as follows (with parameters provided by caller)...$RestoreObject = Get-CVSQLDatabase –ClientName $SourceClient -InstanceName $SourceInstance -Name $SourceDBName | Restore-CVSQLDatabase -OutofPlace –OverwriteExisting -DestClientName $DestClient -DestInstanceName $DestInstance -DestDatabaseName $DestDBName -DataFilePath $DestDatafilePath -LogFilePath $DestLogFilePath -ForceIs documentation available that covers all available parameters? The doc site does not cover most of the parameters above. Is there a parameter providing for changing the physical datafile name and the physical logfile name? This functionality is available through the CV Command Center.Thanks for any help.
