I am currently replacing all of the Windows Server 2012 r2 servers with Windows server 2022. The current web server is running WS2012R2. If I build a new Web Console server with WS2022 how do I know that the newly built server will take over the web console duties? What else do I need to do to replace it with 2022? Any documentation would be helpful. It is painful to find relevant commvault documentaion.
Hello can I upgrade my Commserve directly from 11.20.40 to 11.28.83 (2022E)? I have windows 2012R2 on the CS (virtual machine) ,This is CS and MA together in one VM . Thanks!
Is there a way to reduce M365 licenses? We have already deactivated the Teams backups and Sharepoint backups because there is also an Azure recycle bin available. One idea would be to reduce the retention time. Does this mean anything in terms of licenses? Thanks for your tips!
Hello I would appreciate an explanation of how I delete the backup from the cloud in order to start over. I tried to delete job - under storage policy -but it deleted only the backups that were added and not the first large copy which is 8 Tera i can delete just only the small job that are added with each backup.I want to literally delete everything and let the backup run again after I remove large VM.thx
Hello,I installed by my customer the CDR package on the Commserve server (V 2022E) to replicate DRBACKUP directory to another windows server. It didn’t work for unknown reason, so I decided to uninstall/reinstall/repair the package. But there is no option, how to do it. So I released the license for for the CDR client and then deleted. Now I have no access to the CDR client software and its not possible to uninstall/activate/reconfigure it. Is there any possibility to reinstall/uninstall the CDR client on the Commserve server ?Thank youJiri.
Hello, Quick question - Is Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) licensed per VM just like normal on-prem Kubernetes? Could it also be licensed per TB?Thanks in advance! Sergio
Hi All, is it possible to create an alert for exchange online mailbox backup. When the Cache update is older than x days Showing mailboxes from cache last updated on: Apr 17, 8:49 AM We had some enviroments hwere the cache update and auto discover does not work. Thsi cause potential data loss. the stupid thing here is that the mailbox backup shown as completeded even if there are a lot of skipped mailboxes with that kind of error: Mailbox [Extra] not found in local mailbox cache. Please make sure local mailbox cache is available and refreshed without error. So we want to get an alert when the cache is to old.
how many media agents i can add to each Azure blob storage?
Dear,Today I back up my environment with volume licenses, now I will use vm package licenses.With this I will change my backup mode from file system to virtual Server.QuestionWill my backup volume change?Is there any calculation to size the storage size of my backup in Virtual Server mode?
Scenario:Local on prem copy - 60 day retentionAux copy to Azure - Long term retentionWe would like to set compliance and worm lock on the Azure copy. Questions:In prior feature releases, the suggestion we were given was to have multiple libraries/storage pools that would be rotated half way through the worm lock. Example: A 30 day retention/ 60 day worm lock, at day 31 you switch jobs to a different worm library for 30 days, rinse repeat. Is this still the case? Our Azure retention is up to 7 years. Would the best option be to have the first Aux land in a hot storage bucket that’s immutable for 30 days, and a 2nd aux written to a non immutable storage account utilizing DDB for the full retention period?
I’m backing up a few NAS subclients that are between 10-30TB each.Currently they are scheduled to do a synthetic full backup every weekend with incremental backups every weeknight.These are then aux copied off to tape.Because of the very low change rate in reality probably 95% of what’s written to tape each week is exactly the same as the week before.The speed of the aux copy is becoming an issue as I don’t seem able to aux to two drives but drop down to a single drive when other backup jobs need the second drive.So my question is whether I’m stuck in the past in a traditional GFS mindset and I should look at the “Automatic Synthetic Full” backup option?All backups are kept on disk and tape for a minimum 30 days and extended retention keeps monthly full backups for a year.We have a stupidly quick media agent with an NVMe dual partitioned DDB so in theory we’re doing best practise so the synthetic fulls only take an hour or two each but the 5 days auxing the lot to tape is painful and i
Hi, Is it possible to create an alert only for Out Of Place restore? the alert should include the destination IP (if possible). In alerts customization i found a way to create alerts for restores, but not for Out-of-place only
Hi Team, i am having issues with Data Aging. Basically the setup is following 30 Days 1 Cycle on on SP7 Days 1 Cycle on another SP Daily Incremental and Weekly Full / Synthetic Full Basically moastly about 2000 VMs which gets destroyed from time to time. As i do not have an impact when the VM is destroyed i can not fullifill the Cycle and some data will never age. Is there a automatism if a VM is not found anymore and Data “should” age out that the client and all the corresponding Backups are freed up? thanks
Team , how the hypersalce x , media agent handle the jobs when a failure of one job occurs , i have performed a testing where a job was running with media agent 2 of hyperscal node 2 and i shutdown the same node , 1> the running job is on running mode - and no progress 2> i started new job and it completed successfully started the node 2 and still no progress on that job and it failed .why was it not assigned to any other media agents - and why the job is handled only by one media agent - i can see restore jobs used all 3 media agent but backup is by one , do we have control on this . 3> after the nodes came up , there was a restore job happned from node 2 to node 2 - may i know what basically getting restored ?
couldn't restore mailbox mails from full backup as the older mails which backup was taken wasn't found and even created recovery point to test but couldn't be done.
HiWe presently run Commvault version 11.28.36 For some backup tasks/jobs we are using domain accounts. If we update the password to one of these account in Active Directory where do we update the password for the account in Commvault so the task/jobs continue to run?Kind Regards Dean
I am thinking of attempting the creation of a powerbi data connector, and I just wanted to know if anyone has done it already. The process doesn’t look hard but it doesn’t look easy. I have been doing powerbi transforms on CommVault reports and it’s a huge hassle. So I was thinking if I made a connector it would just make it easier.I am a powerbi novice so I may be going about this entirely the wrong way. Thanks.Chris.
Hello! Apparently, the DDB backup should get automatically configured. We have 3 HSX RA nodes.For some reason the FS iDA on the nodes are grayed out: They all hav the DDBbackup subclient: And there's also a automatically created schedule for the subclientes: but no jobs are running for that schedule. Is it because the FS iDA is not completely configured? Should I hit "reconfigure" for it? Shouldn't all this be automatically set up or did I miss any configuration step? Regards,Pedro

The scheduled Data Aging report is now sending a zip file instead of a HTML. This was not set by the administrator. Where would I go to edit the report to send HTML instead of a zip file.
We are taking the backup for CIFS share (Netapp) by Commvault NDMP protocol. Need to know , whether NDMP uses file level backup or Block level backup .Because we are running robocopy for the CIFs share with Archive bit clear option to copy data manaully from CIFS share to other location . Does this have any impact for the current commvault backup for the cifs share . BR Sudhir T
HelloLooking for anyone who has used Commvault together with Snapvault and would like to know some best practices. I have used both Intellisnap and snapvault in the past but not together.Here is the setup (which was setup before I joined the company). The environment consists of 2 primary AFF and one seconday FAS for the snapvault. All backups are handled with snapshots, so no data is actually sent to the MA or a library. Commvault is only the orchestrator for snapvault and provides vCenter integration through VSA proxy.Plans are in use, and ESX datastores are added to the plansBackup workflow: VSA Proxy tells vCenter to do vmware application consistent snapshot, then the Array MA send commands to Netapp array to create snapshot. Vcenter then removes vm-snapshot and Commvault considers the backup job complete.Backup copy is disabled on the storage policy, otherwise it created a snapclone from the snapshot and mounted it as a datastore and backed up the VM’s through nbd to the MA and di
Hi, Have installed a new 11.34 and need to move the CS to a new domain. How can I change the CS hostname in CommandCenter?I manage to change it under Manage - Servers - CS client - hostname, I clicked save and it did not complain. But it also did not change the previous hostnamne. Documentation for 11.34 still refers to Commcell Console which requires a supportcase to get an authcode. Br, /Patrik
So.. last year we’d implemented a scheme where there were many subclients looking for VMs through vCenter as such:We later noticed a major drag on vCenter, which was causing lockups and such. We then changed the scheme around to something simpler, with far fewer subclients. The issue went away. As I see it - we simply had overburdened our ESX servers/vCenter with too many authentications and checks. Now, it’s being suggested to me that we create far MORE subclients. I’m thinking of taking what it’s found now per datastore and putting them into a static content as such: VMs in the future will be handled differently (we’ve got a policy setup using category\tags in vCenter - this is our old school method for servers that haven’t been brought into the modern fold). Question - does anyone know if this will generate more authentication traffic again? CV could just authenticate once then go about its business with the list?We’re using a windows domain account to authenticate… I’d think
