Workload regions are assigned to clients, such as laptops, during the CommServe software installation. If the location settings are disabled for a client during installation, then workload regions are not assigned to the client. For such clients, you can manually assign a workload region at the CommCell, company, server group, and server entity levels. This enables associated region-based plans to assign a backup destination region close to the assigned workload region. For automatic assignment of a workload region to a client, the Commvault software traverses through the server, server group, company, and CommCell entity hierarchy, and then assigns the region based on the entity that is found first in the hierarchy.
