CommVault Simpana Symantec
Antivirus Exclusion on Windows servers
Have you ever wonder why your backups have been
performing so slow especially with file system as iDataAgent backup type.
Well... If you have looked everywhere and things look
good.. ......Now will be the time to hold your breath and see your IT security
dept and ask them when Symantec is pushing updates to client nodes in the
network.
If you are suspecting that something is going wrong for
your backup for a specific node because of the AV, just do the AV exclusion/exceptions
on your client as follow
From your client computer start your AV and click on
Change Settings. On the exception click configure settings/ Click Add and add
the following information (this should
exclude these files to be scanned while CommVault is doing backup)
C:\Program
Files\CommVault\Simpana\Base\EvMgrC.exe
C:\Program
Files\CommVault\Simpana\Base\CLBackup.exe
C:\Program
Files\CommVault\Simpana\Base\IFind.exe
C:\Program
Files\CommVault\Simpana\Base\cvd.exe
NEXT select the folder and enter the following
C:\Program
Files\CommVault\Simpana
After all it should
look like this
Click OK when
completed and exit the AV . Restart your
backup job
You can find a list
of AV exclusion in CommVault site on the following link
