Hi All, i have an problem with my nutanix ahv vsa backup.  I git the message: Failed    Virtual machine [xyz] was not found. Please verify that the virtual machine still exists and that the host is in the connected state. If the virtual machine does not exist remove it from the subclient. If the virtual machine does exist reselect the virtual machine and re-add it to the subclient content.     When i do an browse i found ths maschines. Also under prism central the vms are up and running.  I created an test subclient with this vms but doesnt help.  Do you have an idear ? 

HelloIs it possible to merge two clients with two different client identifiers?We installed two agents, File&System and SQL, on a server using the FQDN for both host name and display name. The server is run in Azure. “servername.domain.com”Then after a while we added that server to virtual backup. When we did this it ended up with just the name of the server as client identifier. “servername”.This resulted that we now have 2 clients in commcell for the same server. So the question is, can I use the Merge Clients workflow to merge them?Or is it to uninstall and reinstall to solve this?BRHenke 

Hi Commvault gurus! I would like to ask about the process of adding new Media Agents to an existing tape library storage pool. Let's assume the new Media Agent is physically attached to the tape library and everything is properly connected from a hardware perspective. Do we need to deconfigure and reconfigure the tape library in the Commvault Console? I can't find an option to add a new Media Agent to the existing tape storage pool, unlike the process for adding a Media Agent to an existing disk storage pool. Any input will be much appreciated!

Hi,How can i restore office 365 mailbox from secondary copy.Regards.

Hello team,just looking to see how to browse/restore a user mailbox(O365 Exchange Online) from a 2nd copy tried:view jobs from 2nd copy→ right click on job → browse/restore option is grayed out ?    

I’m trying to see if a particular schedule (ToTape) ran on schedule.When I looked at the job summary (storage policy > ToTape > right click > view jobs), I don’t see a job ran on Sept 2 1am. The 2 jobs listed here are the ones I triggered manualy.But when I generate a “Backup Job Summary Report” for that policy, it looks like it ran.We are running commcel version 11.32.63.Did the job actually run? Is there any other ways on how I can verify it?

Hi,We recently upgraded to FR20 and I can’t get the Command Center or Web Console to load.I always get the same error: TomCat is running fine. I restarted the services several times, and even rebooted the CommServe.When I check the CVWebService, I receive the message: “Webservice is Running!”. So I’m not sure what’s happening. I found some Knowledge Base articles, but none solved the issue.Has anybody else had this issue in the past?Thanks!Jeremy

Hello community, After we replaced the media agents in our test environment and the storage policies were redirected to the new media agents, I get the following error message. Description: The virtual machine collect file could not be uploaded to MediaAgent [cvmatapp06]. Unable to initialize connection to remote file cache.I've been dealing with this problem for half a day but can't find a solution. Maybe someone here can give me a hint. I had already replaced the media agents in production but didn't have this problem then.RegardsThomas

Hi All, i have an bad point… I know lic reporting is not easy. I had the following situation. We are using Commvault Backup and Recovery by capacity for vsa and database.  We had an lic used growth from +4tb during the last 24 hours. Yesterday we had 49Tb from 50Tb used and today we are using 53Tb and of course the customer is know asking what happend here.  For me its very dificult to find out what happend here. I checked the bigges vsa player from full to full if there is any increase but i found nothing also the biggest db server from full to full but also nothing.  I send every 14 Day an lic zum report but there i only can see wich typ of application is using how much from the capacity lic So what can i do ?
