I’m sure something is floating around 

This is how I would approach it.

1. Disable all job activity on the Comcell - 
2. Suspend all running jobs
3. Put media agents in maintenance mode.
4. Stop all services in the process manager.
5. check to make sure there are no Sidb2 processes running

Then do everything you need to do, once you are done do the same set of steps in reverse.

There is no official procedure for running Windows updates on Commvault clients.  I would say hat @christopherlecky  suggested should be fine. 

Just to clarify my initial post. I’m only concerned with the procedure for applying Windows updates to the Commcell server itself and rebooting the Commcell server if required. Not the MA’s for CV clients.

Thanks

Same process for the CommServe.  If there is no DDB on it, then disregard the part about the SIDB2 process.

I only mentioned media agents because you mentioned maintenance mode.

There is no maintenance mode for the commserve, so it’s only a step if the commserve is also running as a media agent, and if it is running as a media agent there is a possibility there are DDB’s housed there.

Essentially it’s just inclusive rather than exclusive.

No harm in checking to see if an executable isn’t running when it never runs. 

Agreed. Good luck and update this thread if there are any issues
