Notes on Block-Level Backups

    For supported Linux kernel version details of PostgreSQL block-level backups, see List of Supported Kernel Versions.

  • Network File System (NFS) is not supported for PostgreSQL block-level backups.

Miscellaneous

The File System Agent will be automatically installed during installation of this software, if it is not already installed. For System Requirements and install information specific to the File System Agents, refer to System Requirements - Linux File System iDataAgent.

Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2017 is Automatically Installed

Starting in Service Pack 18, Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2017 (vcredist2017.exe) is automatically installed. If a computer does not have the latest Windows updates, the installation of Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2017 will fail in installing Universal C Runtime.

The following Windows updates must be installed to prevent the installation failure:

KB2919355

KB2939087

KB2975061

KB2999226

Updates are not required on latest Windows operating system versions, such as Microsoft Windows 10 and Microsoft Windows Server 2016, as these versions come with the Universal C Runtime already installed.

DISCLAIMER

Certain third-party software and service releases (together, “Releases”) may not be supported by Commvault. You are solely responsible for ensuring Commvault’s products and services are compatible with any such Releases.
