Hi

We have configured out DDB to spread across 4 Windows virtual machines. Out of 4 VMs we have lost access to 2 VMs. Backups are running as expected by using the remaining 2 VMs with DDB on that.

Now we have freshly built new 2 VMs with Media Agent application components installed.

My question is, how we can recover the DDB fragments which hosted on two lost VMs ? Is there a way to reconstruct the lost sections on to newly built 2 VMs ?

We are on version 11.28.(2022 E).
Appreciate your advise. Please feel free to ask any questions if you need further clarifications.

Many thanks in advance.

Hello @Chamika 

You can move the 2 offline DDB partitions on to the new MA DDB partitions using Change config only option.

ttps://documentation.commvault.com/2023e/expert/moving_deduplication_database_to_another_mediaagent.html

 

Then run the Full DDB recon to rebuild everything but make a note you cannot expect the rebalancing of the partitions.
