Hi Everyone,As part of our continued effort to make your Commvault Community experience more engaging and rewarding, we’re excited to announce that a refreshed Gamification experience is coming soon!In addition to the launch of our All Stars program, we’re also leveling up how community members at large earn badges, climb the leaderboard, and celebrate contributions. We’re reimagining how you earn badges, climb the leaderboard, and celebrate your contributions, building on the system we introduced nearly five years ago.

This will take place on December 5th, 2025, and we expect it to last less than half a day.Important Note:To implement these updates, the Community will be briefly unavailable on December 5, 2025
