Platform Release 11.44 reinforces Commvault's commitment to helping organizations move beyond traditional backup toward a unified approach to cyber resilience—enabling teams to protect, detect, recover, and restore with greater confidence in the age of AI. The session includes demos of new innovations around expanded Identity Resilience and Active Directory security cap

We’re excited to introduce a new, tiered certification path in Readiverse Academy, designed to help Commvault learners build the skills you need to operate, secure, and recover with confidence.

The new Readiverse Academy certification structure gives learners a guided path from foundational knowledge to advanced cloud engineering expertise. This is not a reset. It is a clearer roadmap for what to learn next. What’s New The programme now includes four certification tiers: Commvault Cloud Practitioner – foundational platform and cyber resilience knowledge Commvault Cloud Specialist – expanded operational, workload, and security depth Commvault Cloud Professional – advanced recovery and workload expertise, including Cloud Rewind or Cleanroom Recovery

Web Console Deprecation – What Customers Need to Know Commvault is continuing its move toward a single, modern management experience through the Command Center. As part of this transition, the legacy Web Console has been officially deprecated and is no longer included by default in newer Commvault platform releases. This article explains what the deprecation means for you, when the Web Console may still be required, and how to request access if your environment depends on it. Why is the Web Console being deprecated? The Web Console is being retired as Commvault standardizes on the Command Center as its primary management and reporting interface. The Command Center provides equivalent or enhanced capabilities, improved security alignment, and is the strategic platform for all future feature development. Deprecation timeline • Version 11.38: Web Console interface marked as deprecated • Version 11.40: Web Console removed from the default installation media • Version 11.42 and later: Web
We’re pleased to share an important update to the Commvault documentation portal for Innovation release 11.42: a redesigned left-hand navigation panel that is now aligned with the structure of the Commvault Command Center interface.What’s ChangingIn the past, the organization of our documentation differed from the navigation experience within the product. This sometimes made it harder to move between the Command Center and supporting documentation.With this update, the documentation structure now mirrors the layout and logic of the Command Center. This creates a more intuitive and consistent experience when navigating between the product and its documentation.What This Means for YouEasier navigation between the Command Center and documentation Faster access to relevant information A more streamlined and consistent user experienceThis change is designed to help you find answers more quickly and reduce friction when using documentation alongside the product.We Value Your FeedbackAs you e

Have you ever meticulously restored an Azure SQL database from a .bacpac file, checked the job status, and breathed a sigh of relief when you saw "Success," only to be met with a wave of authentication failures and reports of orphaned users? It's a confusing and frustrating scenario. The portal says the operation was successful, the database is online, but your SQL logins and contained users are completely broken.This isn't a random glitch or a failed job that was misreported. It's a common situation that stems from the fundamental design of how Azure SQL Database handles users and logins during a .bacpac import. This article will demystify this behavior, explaining why it happens, why it's not a bug, and how a different authentication method sidesteps the problem entirely.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------1. Takeaway 1: The "Successful" Restore That Secretly Breaks Your SQL LoginsThe core of the problem is this: even when an Azure SQL Dat

We’re currently planning to migrate our DR Commserve from On-prem to Azure Cloud as part of Hardware Refresh project.Current environment -Primary CommServe (Production) hosted in a On-prem data center A. DR CommServe configured and running in On-prem DC B. Backups are getting backed up locally and connected with Production Backup Server A. Currently everything is running on physical backup environment (Media Server, Storage, Primary and DR Backup Server) Live Sync backups are configured in every 1 hour between Primary and DR Backup Server.Planned Changes - Onprem DR Backup Server needs to decommission, and it needs to migrate in Azure cloud. Primary Backup server will run as is in Onprem DC A. Post successful migration, Primary Backup Server will be on physical environment and DR Backup server will run in Azure cloud. Hostname will be same of DR backup server in Azure cloud. Only IP will be change. No changes for Primary backup server.Questions / Clarifications Required -Best practices
Hi all,After installing the MediaAgent Package on some Windows Servers (These just require the component and do not not act as a Data Mover or host a DR Share) I get the once a day 64:1142 Critical Code Event logged: Administrative share are enabled on the MediaAgent XXX which could lead to potential security exploits, please review and take necessary steps.Having reviewed https://kb.commvault.com/article/72274 this article only really seems concerned with disk libraries and DR Shares that use an Admin share in its path. I have 2 servers that this is being logged in event viewer for, yet they only have the default C$, Admin$ and IPC$. Should Commvault be flagging the C$ as something that should be removed? Indeed if I apply a reg key (AutoShareServer = 0) the alert is suppressed, but this also removes the Admin$ Share. Are these alerts in the Event Viewer supposed to be triggered for these default Shares by design or is it being over zealous and picking up these in error? The Cri
Hi All,does somebody know when disk, or at least name filtering will become available for Proxmox and Nutanix VM backups?Ever so often VMs have disks assigned containing no content worth to be backed up. Like e.g. sources, lasrge test copies of developers or Update Vaults.With VMWare I am used to exclude such disks easily through disk filters, name filters or storage related ones. Or using the independent disk setting. For Nutanix and Proxmox I can find no such possibilities. Commvault also does not honor the Proxmox backup setting for disks.All filtering there applies to complete VMs only.Running currently 11.36.98, but also tested with 11.44.12.Thanks
Hi all!I would like to discuss following situation. We are unable to override retention under plan. After turning on the option on “Override restrictions” to give permission to “Allow this plan can be overridden” than select changing the value to “Override optional/required and clicking OK we see no real changes performed.Is it possible that this setting is somewhere blocked or overwritten by another settings?
Good afternoon, everyone.I'd like to ask for your help with a question.We have a client using Commvault version 11.32. They have a deduplication database, a media agent, and their Commserve system installed, as well as SQL Server 2019. They would like to upgrade to Commvault version 11.40. My question is:Will the upgrade from 11.32 to 11.40 be too significant? Or would they first need to upgrade to version 11.36? Also, regarding SQL Server, does the Commvault package include the update, or would it need to be updated manually?Thank you very much, everyone. I look forward to your responses.
Hello Commvault Experts,I would like to seek clarification regarding the behavior of Commvault agent upgrades on IBM i (AS/400) systems.When an agent upgrade is initiated and pushed from the Commvault Command Center/CommCell Console to an IBM i client, is there any scenario in which the upgrade process could disable, stop, modify, or otherwise affect SSH services (Port 22) on the target IBM i server?We recently observed an SSH connectivity issue following an upgrade activity and are trying to determine whether:The Commvault upgrade process makes any changes to SSH configuration or service status on IBM i. Any Commvault components or upgrade scripts require restarting network services that could temporarily affect Port 22 availability. There are known issues, prerequisites, or documented cases where an IBM i client upgrade resulted in SSH becoming unavailable. Any specific logs on the CommServe, MediaAgent, or IBM i client should be reviewed to verify whether the upgrade had any interac
I passed the Commvault Cloud Professional Certification over a week ago and the badge is not showing up on Credly. I sent two messages to helpdesk@commvault.com and I have had absolutely no responses.
Current commserve version is 11.36.98 and using commcell console. if we upgrade to 11.44 are we still be able to use commcell console?
Hi, I am a Commvault Partner new to the Community. I would also like to take the self paced Engineer (and Expert if available), but all I see that is available is the ILT paid ($3000) for Engineer and for Expert ($5000) ILT also. Am I looking in the wrong place? (I have the exams in progress but failed miserably not having taken any training prior at all)… Thanks, Tom
