Hello fellow Commvault users,
I have a question regarding the upgrade of Commvault from v10 to v11 while also migrating from Windows Server 2012 to Windows Server 2016. I am seeking to determine the best course of action for this process.
Option 1:
- Start by formatting the server and upgrading it to Windows Server 2016.
- Perform a Disaster Recovery to restore Commvault v10 after the OS upgrade.
- Finally, proceed with the upgrade to Commvault v11.
Option 2:
- First, update Commvault v10 to v11 while the server is still running on Windows Server 2012.
- Once the Commvault upgrade is complete, format the server and update it to Windows Server 2016.
- After the OS migration, recover Commvault using the Disaster Recovery process.
I would greatly appreciate your input and feedback on which option you believe is the most efficient and reliable for upgrading Commvault and migrating the OS. If any of you have faced a similar situation or have alternative suggestions, please share your thoughts.
Thank you all in advance for your assistance and support in this endeavor.
