Hi @BillyBoo 

MediaAgent package is a required package for performing IntelliSnap/BlockLevel operations even though it’s LVM snap. Can you please install MA package on this Postgres server and try again?

 

Thanks,

Hi @BillyBoo ,

Is there any archive log cleanup happening outside Commvault backups? If there is any Archive log is missing from Archive directory, we need to run the next backup as full to ensure we don’t have a broken sequence of logs which impacts PIT recoverability.

 

For achieving 2 hours log backup, you can schedule an automatic log backup schedule with 2 hours max interval.

 

Thanks,

@Sunil  there is no other log cleanup sw except commvault.

i already tried full backup  2-3 times all job gives same error messages. i saw commvault create backup log but always give  error messages.
