When you browse files from a backup of a Linux VSA instance, by default, the Commvault software automatically selects the access node to mount the files. To override the default behavior for a virtualization client and specify an access node to mount the files, use the Preferred node for guest file restores setting.
Procedure
-
From the CommCell Browser, go to Client Computers > virtualization_client > Virtual Server.
-
Right-click the instance, and then select Properties.
-
Click the Proxies tab.
For Hyper-V, this is the Nodes tab.
-
From the Preferred node for guest file restores list, select an access node.
-
Click OK.
