Commvault- How to verify multiple tapes

Hi Everyone,

I have recently found that we have various disks with corrupt data, all our backups consist of a policy where the primary copies are kept permanently in the overland storage and secondary copies are shipped off. Is there a way to run a verify on all the tapes currently in the overland storage or all primary tapes. I am not sure if a batch job can be run or if there is a facility within Commvault to do this.

many thanks,


- Josh

Josh,
       CommVault does have the facility to do this - I beileve that it is a licensed feature called Data Verification. To verify, you run the data verification job against all, or specific jobs within a storage policy copy. You can check CommVaults books online for specifics for the feature

Hi Rjordine, thanks for getting back to me. I have this Data Verification tab when choosing the properties of the storage policy, but how do I force a verify on all tapes currently in the library, more importantly the old archived tapes.
