Update Statuses in the Software Version Report

In the Software Version Report, the definition of Good, Warning, and Critical depends on the entity type.

The criteria for each status are based on the number of the version, feature release, and maintenance release that is installed on the entity. The status of the software version appears in the Status for the CommServe server or in the Update Status column for MediaAgents, laptop client computers, infrastructure servers, and servers. If the CommServe server is installed with a Long-Term Support (LTS) release, then the criteria are slightly different than CommServe servers that are not installed with an LTS release. For optimal performance, the software installed on any entity in the CommCell environment must be the same as the software installed in the CommServe server.

Note

The Cloud Services Portal is always installed with the latest Commvault feature release. If your Private Metrics Reporting Server or CommServe computer is installed with an earlier version of the Commvault software, reports on your local CommServe computer might look different or calculate items differently than the reports on the Cloud Services Portal.

For each example, the following color indicates the status of the entity.
