Hi, Has anyone come across a quarantine issue on commvault files by checkpoint endpoint antivirus ? It seems like the files are not signed hence, they are recognized by checkpoint as malware or other menaces. If so, how have you been able to work around it? Regards.

Hello all!  I am facing a problem with capacity licence.I have exceeded 110% while creating backup for end of year export.But we have done housekeeping after that, and now we are about 92%, please have a look:In web console, I also can see this chart:but still I get a warning on console:And it forces me to reset it every 96h… The system is running at this 92% consumption for about 5 days. Today i have found this in web console in other place…

Hi Team, Which agent types have "Validate" options for restore operations? Is there a document page where I can see this in general?File System Agent Example: Microsoft SQL Agent Example: 

There used to be a command in the documentation using which I used to increase the number of rows in the reports, which is by the way set to maximum 10000 rows. I know that we can go past 10000 using reports in command center or web console. But here I am asking about the same to be done in commcell console reports. I know there was a command and I used that several times. But now its nowhere to be found. Does anyone remembers that?

can anyone help me know the difference between Difference between retention lock ,Enabling WORM , compliance lock if we execute enable retention lock workflow will we be able to disable it later ?   

Just to make sure. When does Commvault software start counting days for the purpose of expiring jobs on secondary copies? When backup jobs are immediately available on them? 

Hello everyone!I’m facing an issue with a 1-Touch restore for Active Dicrectory domain controllers.We have the same issues in our lab and in customer production environment.Backups are completed fine, with system state selected (no issues).During the 1-Touch restore (authoritative for first DC and non-authoritative for secondary) we see few files from SYSVOL which failed to restore as below: “\[System State]\Components\DFS Replication services\C\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\DfsrPrivate\ConflictAndDeleted\   [DATA]   [ Reason:    FAILED ]   ->   (Failed)\[System State]\Components\DFS Replication services\C\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\DfsrPrivate\Deleted\   [DATA]   [ Reason:    FAILED ]   ->   (Failed)\[System State]\Components\DFS Replication services\C\Windows\SYSVOL\domain\DfsrPrivate\Installing\   [DATA]   [ Reason:    FAILED ]   ->   (Failed)\[System State]\Components\DFS Replication services\C\Windows\SYSVOL\sysvol\msl.loc

We have setup the Commvault Server in Azure cloud and tried to take the VM backup from the on premise .But getting the error as “”Error Code: [91:449]Description: Error opening     the disks for virtual machine [TestAPVP001].

The media agent goes offline after a while. Restarting the services on the media agent resolves the problem temporarily, but it goes offline again after some time. All server groups are in the same VLAN. We recently transitioned to this system, using Exagrid84 as the backup storage. I have two media agents, one virtual and the other physical (named comm-media and comm-media1, respectively). This setup has been working smoothly for about 2 months. In an effort to reduce backup times, I prepared another virtual media agent and added it to Commvault. However, when I shared it as a third media agent to the Exagrid84 mount paths, both the paths and the comm-media agent went offline.While installing the Commvault agent on the third virtual machine, despite having .NET 4.7 on a Windows Server 2016, it prompted an error saying it should be version 3.5. Upon checking the working comm-media server, I noticed it wasn't installed, so I installed .NET 3.5 on both machines. La

Hi Team,I edited a report in Command Center but I no longer see the Preview, Save, Deploy options.Please help.ThanksFrank

Hello,opening a new thread becaus i couldn´t find anything covering my situation specifically.My client wants to upgrade his ComCell from SP16 to 11.32. I am aware, I have to upgrade to 2022E first and then 11.32 second. At the same time the underlying OS 2012R2 is supposed to be upgraded to 2019. The SQL Installation needs to be upgraded as well. Is there a best practice recomendation on the order of operation?Is it realistic to go well with doing all of this in place or would you recommend instaling everything on a new system and then moving the CommCell over to that new system via DR? Cheers for any recommendations!

Dear All,I want to know what components are installed on redhat for webserver role ? the informations for windows server are available vut not for linux. regards,christophe 

Looking at M365 backups and see some restores takes quite a bit of time. From the CVMailRestore.log on the access node this line seems to indicate most of the restore time.CVFetchMessages::EnumerateFolder - Time taken to enumerate folder: [Inbox] is [00h:09m:16s]Based on this I’m wondering what this line means in term of performance? Where should i look to try to increase performance of this step? Is it enumerating the inbox in m365? Is it enumerating the inbox on the commvault indexingserver?Monitoring the accessnode and indexserver during the restore I cannot see any excessive use of CPU/RAM so unsure where to look, or if there is anything to speed this up?

Hello,This is our first foray into Commvault-PostGres, so please be gentle. I have a development Linux host with 2 postgres instances in commvault, host1 and host1_5444.  They both appear to be backing up correctly without issue.Through the GUI, I’m attempting to do an out of place restore on the same host, restoring host1 instance to the host1_5444 instance.  The restore says it completes, but host1_5444 instance is missing a database from host1 instance.After the restore, the source instance host1 instance is down.  Commvault modified it’s postgresql.conf as such:[postgres@<myhost>data]$ diff postgresql.conf postgresql.conf.BEFORERESTORE682,688c682< port = 5444<< restore_command = 'cp /var/lib/pgsql/archivedir2/%f %p'< recovery_end_command = 'touch \'/var/lib/pgsql/14/data/recovery.done.cv\' && mv -f \'/var/lib/pgsql/14/data/postgresql.conf\' \'/var/lib/pg
