Need to perform Linux CommServe DR Backup to another VM

Question

Does anyone know if there is a way to have the option of doing the CommServe DR Backup to another VM.

This is a Linux CommServe.

We are currently doing it to the local path and to the Metallic Cloud.

Is there a way to add a 3rd option or to change the local path to another VM?

Thanks

hello@LibiI can provide a straightforward scenario for you:1.Set Up a Linux File Share Server:First, you'll need to set up another VM as a Linux file share server. You can follow the steps outlined in thishttps://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/samba-file-sharing2. Configure and Mount the File Share on Linux CommServe:Next, you'll want to configure and mount the file share dir on your Linux CommServe. Detailed instructions can be found in thishttps://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/storage_administration_guide/mounting_an_smb_share#mounting_an_smb_shareI've provided an example based on RHEL. If you're using a different distribution, I recommend searching for similar articles based on the links provided.Best Regards,Mohamed RamadanData Protection Specialist

Would something like this help?https://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/configuring_local_drive_or_network_share_as_export_destination_for_disaster_recovery_dr_backups.htmlYou can configure your export destination to be a network share. Just need to make sure such share is correctly configured from an OS/Permissions/Network perspective
