There is a new physical tape library configured in this environment (HPE MSL G3 2024) with 2 tape HPE Ultrium 8-SCSI FC drives. The tape library was added in Commvault and few auxiliary copy jobs performed:1. With the hardware compression disabled in Commvault storage policy copy data path configuration. The size of data on the first tapes was 10 TB.2. With the hardware compression enabledin Commvault storage policy copy data path configuration. The size of data on each tapes was 20-21 TB.The backup data type is VMware backups.Our question is why Commvault is not placing more than 30 TB on each tape, considering they are LTO8 and hardware compression is enabled? This customer has another Commvault environment , with similar backup devices and same settings, they are able to accommodate between 30 -40 TB.
Hi all, Any idea how can I add/get the below tiles to the Dashboard? Health Report: Disk Library Growth TileHealth Report: Live Sync Status Tile https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/essential/health_report_live_sync_status_tile.htmlhttps://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/essential/health_report_disk_library_growth_tile.html
Hi everyone, I have live sync enabled between two comm cells “Active and Passive”. DB maintenance haven’t run since around 2 years. the workflow is disabled unfortunately. I need to run the command dbmaintenance -full on the active server. Shall I disable the live sync before running the command? Do I need to run the same command on the passive commcell server as well? Thanks in advance
Has anyone seeing this case where when running a backup copy, VMs are mounted, but some of them end up “invalid” this failing backup copy and hanging around vsphere. We have to manually right click and select “Remove from Inventory then run another backup which then works fine.VMTools running latest version.Run a full on the affected VMs and it keeps happening.Had a ticket with CV which said that this is a VM issue, so wondering if the community has seen this before and have found a solution for it? Thanks
Hi All, We have many clients that are backing up even in powered off state. As per my knowledge, snapshot should be placed in the datastore and creation of snapshot consider the ESXi host rather than VM (please correct me if I'm wrong).To avoid such scenarios, I found that we have prepared and post process scripts which can be made outside of commvault.Can someone help me on below questionsWhere I can find these scripts?How these scripts works?Do I need to place these scripts in every VSA? Thanks in advance!!
Hi Team, I have getting an error in Our Commvault backup infra as follows below "The SCSI command to drive is stuck on the active drive controlling media agent” Please advice on this case
Hi community,we are migrating from another solution to Commvault’s backup solution.Currently we are billing our customers per client and per used backup disk space. It would be great if we could handle the billing the same way as before.We are now looking for the best way the get the used disk space per client. Ideally directly with a SQL query. In another thread someone recommended the QS_BackendStorage stored procedure. While this looks like a good solution, we are not sure how to interpret the values. In our understanding the column ‘Backend Size (GB)’ contains the actual used disk space on the media agents per client. So adding up all those values should be equal to the used disk space on the volume.In our testing system currently 14.3TB of the disk space is used (by just checking the disk usage on the media agent - we currently only have one), while the sum of all values in the column ‘Backend Size (GB)’ of the stored procedure is about 100TB.So maybe someone can explain how those
Upgraded to Commvault version 11.34.5. We are running intellisnap backups and AppAware for SQL Since the update SQL AppAware backups do not work the default way for this version, App Consistent. The manifest.zip file that is sent to Commvault from vmware doesn’t contain the xml files needed, Writer.xml. Per Commvautl/VMware this failure is happening on the VM client OS side of things. Has any experienced this issue? Thank you

GreetingsI’m busy testing the EDC to migrate from Backup Exec to Commvault.I must stress that I”m using a trial license of Backup Exec and Commvault to test this, so this may be causing my issue. When I install and configure the EDC on the BE Master Server, I don’t get the option to configure the connection settings to the BE server as listed below.It auto configs with no options to edit any settings.https://documentation.commvault.com/2024/expert/discover_and_migrate_external_data_connector.html I simply get the below with no options to configure the instance options: As a result, the Discovery fails in connecting to BE.I tried to then create the xml answer file using the below example that could be used to run the discover. The file doesn’t create. CVForeignHandler –collectdata –vendor 13 –user "bsmith" –password "be348n2" -vm "Instance001" –cn "client1" What I did note is that when running the edc_backupexec.bat command from the cloud option, I get the below errors in the files cre
Hi Good Day!I’m planning to deploy new HSX servers. I have a question about the DNS record requirement. Pls help.Environment detail:Bond1VLAN1.bond1 (CS-Registration) -→ This will be used for connecting to Commserve and VMware backup, DNS, and MGMT.VLAN2.bond1 (Data Protection)-→ This will be used to backup Agent-based backup. Bond2 -→ This is for the Storage Pool. DNS record not required.DNS record planning to create for the bond1 interfaces.VLAN1.bond1: hsxcsreg01.smaple.com , hsxcsreg02.smaple.com, hsxcsreg03.smaple.comVLAN2.bond1: hsxdp01.sample.com, hsxdp02.sample.com & hsxdp03.sample.com ? Do I need to create a DNS record for the Agent-based backup sub-interface? In this context, I doubt I can have a DNS entry for a sub-interface other than the CS registration. Please help.

Hello Commvault Community, If the environment is already configured with Network Gateway (and it works) and I want to change the Hostname of the intermediary module itself (Proxy/Network Gateway), should I do it somehow differently than changing the Hostname for other components in the environment? Changing the Host Name of a Client Computerhttps://documentation.commvault.com/2024/expert/changing_host_name_of_client_computer.html I'm asking because I performed this procedure and on the Network Gateway module itself, the Hostname was changed, but on every Client that is indicated to communicate with the Commvault Infrastructure through this Network Gateway module, it wasn’t changed and the IP address is still displayed, even though it was changed to the FQDN address. Additionally, I performed "Push Network Configuration" operations on each group that belongs to this Network Topology configuration. The change in the laptop properties in the "CommServe Hostname" field indicates the IP ad
Our network and security team have proposed the creation of a new Management VLAN within our Internal LAN, with the intention of consolidating all Management/ILO's into it. As part of this initiative, I am considering changing the IP address of the Commvault web console to align with the new Management VLAN.Before proceeding, I would greatly appreciate insights from the community on the following points:Is it common practice to change the web console IP address to integrate with a new Management VLAN? The recommended steps or procedures for executing this change safely and efficiently. Any potential risks or complications that I should be aware of before proceeding with the change.Thank you.

Dear Community,In a organization with 1GB network cross infrastructure, Im looking a way to redirect a backup traffic from a Client Server with 10GB lan → a Commvault MediaAgent also with 10GB LAN.This client has a huge Database and in order to proceed with backup, a 10GB interface network!Please for your recommendation / workaround in order to redirect the 10GB interface between the specific client ↔ MediaAgent, which also has 1GB network (for the other backup jobs)!How can we ensure that database backups are routed through a specific 10GB network, considering that the communication between the ComCell and the client currently occurs over a separate 1GB network? Is it possible to prioritize backup traffic to utilize the higher bandwidth network effectively? Best regards,Nikos
Hi,I couldn’t find any crowdstrike best practices I could only find the antivirus exclusions - https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/essential/8665_antivirus_exclusions_for_windows.htmlIs there any specific best practice for crowdstrike? Best regards,
Hi Team, please help with below query,our commserv server management interface and HSX RA nodes DP interface are in different VLAN and there is firewall in between.we have commserv server management interface in VLAN 10 and data interface in Vlan 20. Also the DP interface in HSX RA nodes will be in VLAN 20. so when we initially set up the HSX RA nodes, and we provide the FQDN/management IP of Commser server in HSX RA nodes, for registration to the existing commserv environment. based on below provided link, we have to run some additional configuration since there is a firewall in between.https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/connecting_to_commserve_behind_firewall_during_setup_01.htmlmy question is , we have to run some commands as per steps in above link, so where do we run these commands as part of additional configuration, is it inside HSX node ? should we do these additional configuration before installing HSX ISO in nodes or after installing ISO and Setup the network s
