@gary mcneely , let me confirm that for you so you can maintain your excitement level 

@gary mcneely , still looking into this, though it seems to be something less-than-final:

The team was so excited they posted it with full visibility.   As soon as this is ready, I’ll let the community know!  

Just found out that the Linux Commserve will be out before then end of the week…. Thank you Commvault ,, sorry Commvault support… :(

HAHAHAHAHA!  You just woke this old thread up from its slumber!

Much requested feature, that’s for sure!

still waiting ...

It is available as part of FR25 (technology preview!).

Docs: https://documentation.commvault.com/11.25/expert/132363_commserve_server_in_linux_environment_getting_started.html

"Note: Migrating a CommServe server from a Windows environment to a Linux environment is not supported. A fresh Linux installation is required." 

😭😭

Let me see if I can find out why (adding @MFasulo if he knows).

@Bart , spoke to a colleague who advised that the number of changes required to account for Windows>Linux (think of all of the file locations that need to be changed, and that’s just one part) are the reason, though it’s being worked on.

No ETA, but definitely being addressed.

Not today… there are backend changes we needed to make to conform to some requirements on the SQL Linux side.  We are closely monitoring the requests and will see where we can land on a transition.  I’ll keep the community up to date on this

No worries, I do understand that :)
