Hi all,
We want to change the OS of our MediaAgent from Windows to RHEL for securtiy reason.
Windows MA has network shared disk library, DDB and Index are in local drives.
If it is possible, please provide any documentation of what are the requirements and procedure.
Thank you.
hello
For Media Agent OS refresh, from window to Linux
The safest and easiest method of a MA Refresh is to build your new Linux MA with new Hostname/Client name, deploy it within Commvault
begin migrating things across like Storage and DDBs.
Once everything is moved over, you can begin to decommission the old Windows MA.
For assistance with moving the Deduplication Database (DDB), please refer to this guide:
