Folks, 

Does Commvault allow you to restore DB backups from a source SAP HANA DB server (SAPdbServer1) to the filesystem path of a destination SAP HANA DB server (SAPdbServer2) which can then be restored into the destination SAP DB using SAP HANA Studio tools? I can perform this type of SAP HANA DB restore as file using Azure Backup but cannot find the same feature and procedure in Commvault. (See the Azure Backup screenshot showing this restore)


Both the source and destination servers are Azure VMs running Suse Linux (SLES 15.6) and both are being backed up as Commvault Virtual Machines. The source Db server is also running the CommVault SAP DB agent but the destination server is not yet running this agent. I could also restore these DB backup files to the filesystem of a fileshare (CIFS) mounted on a third server (ClientServer3) and then mount that same fileshare to the destination server to enable restore of these DB files using SAP HANA Studio tools. I’m currently running CommVault 11.32.73. The CommCell is Windows Server 2022 with multiple Media Agents and entire environment hosted in Azure public cloud. 

Please let me know what the procedure is to enable Commvault to restore SAP HANA DB files/folders to a filesystem/path on a destination server and what preparation or tools are needed to make this procedure work. Also, if I need to install an agent or tool/utility, please let me know where I can download the necessary files. (Commvault SAP DB agent, Commvault VM agent, Commvault utility/tool)

Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
