You can require a passkey for browsing and restoring data on your computer. After you enable the passkey feature and create the passkey, share the passkey with the required computer users.
If your administrator also requires a passkey for performing browse and restore operations on your computer, your passkey takes precedence. Alternatively, if you have not enabled and created a passkey yet, then you can ignore the passkey created by your administrator and create your own passkey.
Configuring a Passkey
When you create a passkey, you may need to provide the passkey created by your company Commvault tenant administrator.
Before You Begin
Verify and obtain the company-level passkey from your company Commvault tenant administrator. If your tenant administrator has not enabled a passkey for all company clients, then ignore this step.
