Hello Community,

 

I’m looking for answer on the differences in the documentation for Commvault versions SP24 and SP28, and how these CV SP versions handle the deletion of previous versions of objects in S3 immutable storage.

https://documentation.commvault.com/11.24/expert/9251_configuring_worm_storage_mode_on_cloud_storage.html

https://documentation.commvault.com/2022e/expert/9251_configuring_worm_storage_mode_on_cloud_storage.html

#1 According to the documentation, in version SP24, we are required to create a lifecycle rule to clean up previous versions of deleted objects.  But in Commvault SP28, this step ('before we begin tasks’) is not mentioned in the documentation. 

Does that mean in SP28, When we create a new immutable bucket with Object Lock enabled, Amazon S3 will not automatically enables versioning for the bucket or we do not need to enable versioning in order to enable object lock ? 

Or versioning still require in order to enable storage lock in S3 bucket but Commvault will automatically clean up previous versions of deleted objects in version SP28

Or we have to create life cycle rule in S3 for SP28.

#2 Also if we set up a WORM storage mode with versioning in version SP24, and we upgrade to version SP28 later on, it is not clear what will happen to the previous versions of deleted objects, do we still need create s3 lifecycle rule ?

thanks
