Hi Team,I’m currently want to deploy a backup for Azure stack HCI vm backup. As per the documentation online, I can only see at the essential section where it need to configure using command center. When I looked at the expert section, there is no Azure stack HCI configuration. The way it deployed seems that the same as per normal HyperV backup, where I need to install VSA at all HCI node.My question is:Do the configuration only supported from command center and not from commcell console?  The HCI node is based on HyperV core setup, without a GUI, how can I install VSA inside the HCI node? Using command line from power shell? How to run setup.exe (the installer) from the power shell?Thanks and best regards,Fauzi

hello everyone.From the process manager you can see that all the services are active, only the CommVault Workflow Engine service has not started. I can't start it from the Process Manager and neither manually from Windows Services. I already checked the permissions, ports, connections and everything is fine.Do you have any idea?

I would like to rebuild/replace our current v11 (.28.56) Command Center server (virtualised), that is running the Commcell Console and Command Center, as it running on Windows 2012 R2, which is about to be EOL from Microsoft. Is there an easy to follow procedure to do this, as I could not find anything in the Knowledge Documentation website. Ideally, I would like to build the new command server with the existing one still running, to avoid interrupting current backups, and loss of databases/jobs, etc. Is this easy to do?I will worry about the physical media server separately when the time comes.P.S. I had hoped to do an in-place Operating system upgrade on the existing VM, but Windows 2016 refused the Keep Files/apps option, most likely because the current Console is running SQL 2008.

Hello, In my configuration, the CommServer and a Windows System are both members of a domain. When I try to add the Windows System as a laptop, the job fails with the error shown below.68:574 Required media version [11.30] with transaction Id [4859364] is missing in the Software Cache. CommServe may be installed with a lower version media. Please check the media in Software Cache and try updating the CommServe before updating clients.Source: win-c7k6li9lpl7, Process: DistributeSoftware I looked into the software cache on the CommServer but couldn't find anything. I need some assistance here.  CommServer Version : 11.30.43  [Hitachi Data Protection Su

Hello community,I’m wondering about cloud libraries redesign to provide offsite copies for resources protected in certain Azure region. Since we don’t have express route in our configuration, I’m wondering how to keep costs low. Basically, we are running at Metallic, but most of Commvault configuration is available to us. So, there are two major scenarios I’m considering:use set of new AZ Storage Accounts with native Geo replication (GRS) to keep egress costs more controlled. So there would be primary copy keep at hot LRS in RegionA and secondary at cool GRS RegionA (replicated to paried region) use Commvault native auxcopy, this will trigger significant egress upon transferring data from one AZ region to another due to extensive data reads. So there would be primary copy keep at hot LRS in RegionA and secondary at cool LRS RegionB  What are you experiences? Will GRS with additional amount or reads caused du

Dear team,👋😁I am seeking your valuable assistance to address technical issues that I am experiencing with the Commvault agent (11.28.52), which is installed on a machine with a MediaAgent role and Oracle database agent and file system agent (as shown in the attached image). The machine in question is of considerable size, in terms of terabytes, and encounters various issues which I would like to describe: The MediaAgent role was installed to send all information through SAN. However, it appears that this MediaAgent role has led to several client restarts. When attempting to stop jobs locally, Commvault processes remain running on the server, causing slow performance and interrupting the proper functioning of the databases. Even without any active jobs running on the client, Commvault processes continue to run every hour. The HP-UX 11.31 Itanium operating system server VPAR is hosted on a Superdome platform a
