..chgrp: invalid group: ‘14 groups’

 

FYI - I do not have “ROOT” access to the server could the above be the cause of that error?

    hello ​@Commvault387 

    To resolve this issue, you'll need to log in as the root user as you mentioned or a user with sudo privileges. Additionally, make sure to adjust the directory permissions before proceeding with the installation

    Let me know if you face any other issues

    Hello  M0hamed,

     

    Thanks for your replay, i will work with the Server Admin to Root privileges to install the backup agent.

    hello ​@Commvault387 

    Sure, just let the server admin know that we have two installation options: installing the package as root, or installing it as a SUDO user with root privileges,



    as Commvault documentation below.

    I highly recommend the remote installation method as it’s the easiest.

    If you require any further information, let me know
