Hello,

I start working recently with CommVault and I have a lot of alerts “No Backup for last 7 days”. Since the machines are been removed from VMWARE why they alert still appear??

Any idea how stop those alerts…

 

Thanks,

 

Christos

Please follow the below DOC and check the setting. This could be a reason that you are getting the alert for the deleted VMs still.

Delete deconfigured clients that have no protected data

Definition: During a data aging job, clients that meet the following criteria are deleted after 30 days from the day they were created:

  • The client is deconfigured.

  • The backup data is deleted.

  • The software was uninstalled on the client.

    Additional criteria for discovered virtual machines.

    • The VM is deleted in the management interface for the hypervisor, such as VMware vCenter.

Default Value: 1

Range: 0 (No) or 1 (Yes)

Usage: By default, the value is set to 1 which means that clients that meet the preceding criteria are deleted. Set the value to 0 to not delete the clients that meet the preceding criteria.

Notes: For tape library, the deconfigured clients are deleted only when all the media associated with the tape library are recycled.

Tip: You can also use the Clients with no Archive Data rule to group client computers that meet the preceding criteria and may be deleted.
