Qcommand, API or CS sql query to retreive the information listed under Instance Status tab for a Snap job under V2 virtualization (Amazon Web Services)In V2 virtualization, we have VSAParentJobID which is 123654 in the above screenshot and each VM added in that subclient will have a VM Job ID associated to it for a Snap backup.Whereas in V1 virtualization , it was just one job id for all VM’s so there wasn’t any confusion, we use this JobID to cleanup any snapshots/ami that were left by FAILED/Partially Successful jobs.I’m finding it difficult with V2, since the snapshots are named as per the VM Job ID which is only seen within the Instance status tab in Job Details.The API for Get Job Details on a the VSAParentJobID is not giving me the associated VM Job IDIt only gives the following info:jobSummarysizeOfApplicationopTypesizeOfMediaOnDiskstatuslocalizedOperationNamebackupLevelclientGroups informationsubclient information like clientName, instanceName, backupsetId, clientID, subclientI

Hi,I have a workflow running with a loop/wait in it, so this keeps running.Another workflow needs to kill it when a specific condition happens, but this workflow can’t kill the job.I also tried to kill it manually with the “qoperation jobcontrol” command but that doesn’t work either.The only way to kill it, is right-click in the Commcell console. There’s no issue to kill other jobs with the “qoperation jobcoltrol” command.Does anyone have any idea why this is not possible and how I can get this working?Thanks and kind regards,Jan

Hi all,In the 2024E release I read something about migrating data from other backup vendors to Commvault. Unfortunately this can only be done for file ystem data (the the moment). Is there a plan to migrate other data (databases, VM's) too? That would be a complete solution when a customer wants to migrate from another vendor to CommvaultHopefully we have some information on this! Thanks in advance for the answerKind regards,Henk

I would like retrieve the instance size information for each VM for a specific job? Is there any qcommand / API that i can use to get this info

All my workflows will start but stay on the submission page until the workflow completes.What am I doing wrong?I want to enter the options for the workflow and then have it return the jobid. Thanks.

Does your organization have a mandatory password change policy and Commvault SQL accounts (sqladmin_cv and sqlexec_cv) are not in an exception? No worries. We have you covered. We now have “Refresh Commserve Database Access Key” workflow  available in your Commserve and it can be scheduled to change passwords of these accounts.  Happy meeting your security/audit requirements.  Have fun.

I'm working on a project where I need to deploy a software agent to endpoint devices. The requirement is for the deployment to be completely silent and automatic, initiated by a script running on the user's device. Here are the specific details: The script will download the agent from a cloud storage location (e.g., S3 bucket). The downloaded agent will then be automatically installed on the user's device. The entire process should be seamless and require no user interaction. Can someone please help me with the script or any other approach I can take here? Thanks!

I need an API endpoint to fetch the subclient id. For testing purpose I copied the ID from the url: https://win-igicqf1affn/commandcenter/#/collectionDetails/content/3/10 In the above mentioned URL 10 is the subclient id. I have used it in other API endpoints. But when I use the api in order to fetch the subclient id it gives me 14 instead of 10.
