HiHad anyone created a report, that can show retention(date) based on each client level? 

I’m very curious if other companies have adopted Continuous Replication within their VMware environments. We are a rather large RP4VM shop and there are many… challenges. I’ve watched CR mature over time and we’re at the point where we’re ready to start testing at scale. We have roughly 7,000 VM’s which need to be replicated (no point in time recovery, just latest recovery point) and I’m curious how others have configured their environment to support 24x7 replication (absolutely no downtime).

Hi Community.Our Riskassessment Team found some Issues with jQuery on our ContentMailSever/Exchange Online Access Systems. It seems they are using the jQuery Version 1.9.1 and it gets flagged for being EOL.All our installed Clients are on V11.24.25 and also have the Hotfix for the log4j Issue.Is there any timeline for replace the old jQuery Version in V11.24.x or do we need to update to V11.25 or even V11.26?Or is there a supported way, to replace the libs manually?

Hello everyone, Before I open a ticket, I decided to ask here first, :).I’m with a alert configured to send via e-mail to a client when the Job Restore Succeed (Replication), but this client ask me to add more info so he don’t need to open the Command Center to see exactly what exactly was successful.With this, I went in the Command Center > Monitoring > Alerts > Alerts Definitions > the Alert itself. I edited the template and add more informations in it and then I saved the template, but when the client received the alert, he received the e-mail totally deconfigured, with the criterias I inserted, but with no informations:So what I did after this was to restore everything back to the original, and reconfigure the Alert using the Console Java Gui. I saved the template, and inserted more options in the table with the criterias as you can see below:But even with this configurations setted, when he received the alert in his e-mail, the informations that I configured like: Virt

Thanks Bill for detailed documentation. This helped me during setting up NFS for teradata backup purposes.I see performance for the jobs written on NFS is not same as other jobs using same disk library.NFS jobs are running with average throughput of 100GB/hr while other agent jobs to same disk library is in TB/hr.Ran CVperformance check on disk cache and that is also much better (throughput in TB/hr) Anything to check further. I have logged support case but any advice is appreciated.

Hi all, We’ve recently implemented IMDSv2 to our Commvault AWS deployed infrastructure. Are there plans to support IMDSv2 in future releases of Commvault? From what I can tell right now, we are getting:“Failed to connect to virtual machine host as user “redacted” from access node “redacted”. Please select AWS proxy that has access to AWS instance metadata”Our access node authentication method is: “IAM Role” Just interested to understand is this is a limitation of the SDK being used for making connections over the API, or are we missing some permission set on our end to get this working?

Does anyone know if Hub site ( is part of sharepoint ) is supported by commvault . I can't find anything about it on BOL. I can't find anything in commvault database. When I run sharepoint site disovery I see everything except Hub sites.

Hello, Everyone.I am currently in an environment where they use CyberArk to change all service accounts passwords at different intervals. They have their sysadmin sa for sql database backup on cyberark and it changes often. The backup administrator does not know when the password changes because it is automated. This often leads to backup failure due validation of credentials. Is there a workflow to update the passwords as they change that?  Or a way commvault can be on on-boarded on cyberark so the passwords updates as they change. Or a different way that the issue can be resolved. Note:Security is paramount to them, they are not looking to change how their passwords are generated. Please, help.

In the chargeback report, it’s (should be) possible to define global price & billing tags.But that’s per TB. How to set that per GB? If not possible, will commvault to the correct math from Tb to gb? I mean: If we use 100 for 1TB, will commvault calculate for 600Gb:      (100/1024)*600 =  58.59   or will it use rounding (e.g 0 or 100)   

Good morning!We are trying to set up DynamoDB backups for additional accounts within an organization.  We have the EC2 instances backing up using STS Assume Roles.  Do we need to add the DynamoDB permissions to that assume role?  Do we need permissions added to the top level VSA as well?  Is the best practice to provide access a different way?  Can we even use the assume role?Thanks!

I am running Multiple Commvault Servers and storage agents in Azure, I have created several dashboards to monitor these VM’s but it’s at the VM level rather than the Commvault application level. Has anyone created an Azure Dashboard that monitors Commvault at the application level. I do realize that this can be done from the Commvault Dashboard but it would be useful for support to have a dashboard within azure that can highlight performance issues.

Hi Team,we have a case, where customer is trying to perform one touch recovery  It seems like the pin doesn't work. We can type in the password and PIN and it lists the clients. Once the desired client is selected it seems like it's trying to use the password again but the PIN has expired so it says wrong password or username.i have checked the  previous cases for the  same issue.and the  resolution provided was one touch recovery does not support 2FAand a reference CMR was created CMR ID 256780

Hi experts, I got a question about NetApp Snapshot from a customer but I’m not sure.Can you help me on this? Customer plans to perform the Oracle Backup using Intellisnap for NetApp iSCSI LUN.After initial full backup NetApp will take a snapshot based on changed block and then CVLT performs subsequent/incremental backup using the snapshot from NetApp. Can we perform an incremental backup? and changed block/data is only backed up?Customer intends to save the backup image into Object Storage. I was wondering if we can perform an incremental backup using NetApp Snapshot andif we can perform a synthetic backup on Object Storage. (Full + Incremental Image) From what I heard for NBU they can do only a full backup, not incremental backup using snapshot.Thanks

I have the following question and hoping someone can answer:I have to migrate data (multiple terabytes) from a Windows-based file server to OneDrive (Office365). The data contains archived data of the last 10 years. Commvault Archiving is being used. Currently, the single policy archives all files which have not been accessed for the last 5 years.I can migrate data, but the archive files (stubs) are unarchived as soon as I migrate the data to OneDrive. This caused file server space to bloat as the stubs got unarchived.The client does not want to delete any data even after migration. I have the following question:How to mitigate the risk of the file server going out of space during migration?Also, please advise any other migration strategy to OneDrive other than direct copying, which does not risk file server space bloating.Thanks.
