    Not Writing to Capacity of LTO 4 Tapes

    You bet, I went back myself and increased the streams because I saw the same issue with length of time to Aux copy. We've never used Multiplexing and Commvault said to never use multiplexing. I'd like to talk to you offline about the multiplexing topic. You can find me at...

    archive bit flipped

    WC, One of the things we found was our anti-virus, Sophos was modifying the files Change Journal which Commvault picks up. When we first got Sophos installed it changed the amount of data our incrementals were backing up to almost fulls everynight. There is a regedit that can be done with...

    Commvault and Sophos large differentials (SOLUTION)

    We've been working on deploying Sophos in an large existing domain with Commvault 8.0. Our issue is that overnight the diffential backups increased 1000% per server. 3-4 TB amounts of data rather than 400-600GB per night. Sophos is configured to scan every night at 3AM with on-access set to...

    System State Failed to Create VSS Snapshot

    Before you do this have as good a backup as you can, for virtual servers export and copy it off to another server for protection. Disclaimer: This worked for me on 4 servers. I have 8 more to go. This may or may not work for your situation but it points you in the direction for the fix...

    System State Restore

    Mr Fokker, We had a server fail after a power surge that took the Perc controller out. After replacement we installed the basic OS and 1 note here, the restore has to be done to the same SP level OS as the backup was done at. We loaded the OS 2003 then to SP2. Did the restore to C:Drive with...

    Failed to disable hardware encryption

    Great Info, Are your ML2000/ML4000 tape libraries doing compression on your LTO-4's or are you getting native <800GB tape compression. We have an ML6020 and are not getting any compression. Thanks in advance Mitmont
